GlossaryCashmere Yield

amount of fine undercoat fibers from a cashmere goat

Cashmere yield refers to the amount of fine, soft undercoat fibers that can be harvested from a cashmere goat. This yield is typically measured as a percentage of the total fleece weight, with higher percentages indicating a greater proportion of valuable cashmere fibers compared to coarser guard hairs. For professionals, optimizing cashmere yield involves selective breeding, proper nutrition, and effective dehairing techniques to maximize the quality and quantity of the harvested fibers.
