How do sheep farms work?

[arsonistSnowman]

Looking for some resources, I know that having someone assigned to the sheep farm and sheep in the pastures/farm itself will produce wool, which can be turned into yarn. What I'm wondering is if the amount of wool scales off of the number of sheep, or the number of families assigned to the farm? That way I know how many (if any) more sheep I have to buy. I have 6 currently and haven't noticed a marked increase in wool production. Any help would be appreciated

I guess it depends on the population?
Prolly need to buy more sheep or breed.
I haven't really got that far yet I only had 5 sheep.

as what i have discovered: your sheeps will drop the wool on the pasture and the farmer is picking it up and drop it at the sheep farm. the more farmers youve got the faster they will collect the wool.

Okay that makes sense, so wool production scales with number of sheep and the family assigned just picks it up? That makes sense
