Résumé : |
The leather industry is one of the priority sectors in Ethiopia, which has been identified as potentially competitive in the global market. Ethiopian tanners face a shortage of raw material input for production of leather. The government strategically planned for importing raw skins from neighboring countries and also for effective utilization of available raw material resources in the country. About fourteen sheep breeds are recognized in Ethiopia. Among the available resources, Wanke sheepskins, indigenous to lowland of Ogaden area of Somali Region take prime position based on their availability. Meat of Wanke sheep is in high demand in international market, but the skin commands low price not only due to availability but also less demanded by tanners due to natural problems associated with the skin. In this paper the histological, chemical and physical characteristics of Wanke sheepskins have been analyzed using various tools and techniques. This characteristic understanding of the Wanke sheepskins will enable the development of process strategy to produce Wanke leathers with improved properties. |
