Ulaanbaatar, May 27, 2025 /MONTSAME/. Under the auspices of President of Mongolia Khurelsukh Ukhnaa, the “Golden Shears – 2025” International Shearing and Woolhandling Championships will be held in Mongolia for the first time on June 20-21, 2025.
Since 1961, countries around the world have regularly hosted the International Shearing and Woolhandling Championships aimed at introducing advanced machinery, equipment, and technology to the livestock industry and improving the quality of raw material preparation. The first Golden Shears World Shearing and Woolhandling Championships were held in England in 1977, and the Championships have since taken place every two years.
The Championships have international categories, such as wool pressing and wool classing. Mongolia began training professional shearers in 2022, and to date, 28 individuals have become certified in this field.
