Explanation
Dorset is the number 1 white fleece breed in the US. This suggests that Dorset sheep are the most popular breed known for their white fleece in the country. They are likely preferred by farmers and breeders for their wool quality, which may be softer, finer, or more desirable for various purposes such as textile production. Dorset sheep may also have other desirable traits such as good adaptability to different climates, high fertility, or ease of handling, making them the top choice for wool production in the US.
