Wednesday, February 18, 2004 Wool disposition and farm value2002The quantity, price and farm value of purchased wool and wool for home use are now available for 2002 by province and for Canada. Following several years of reduced values, the total farm value of wool purchased in 2002, pegged at $1.4 million, increased to levels comparable to 1998. This was an increase of 59% from 2001. This upward trend is due to a combination of stronger prices and an increase in the quantity purchased. Alberta continues to be the major player with 42% of the value with Ontario second at 18%.
