"Navajo sheep raising skills let your herd animals fatten much more quickly on a Livestock Pen, Farm, Village, Shrine, and Sacred Field."

- In-game description

Navajo Shepherds is a technology in Age of Empires III: The WarChiefs. It can be researched at a Trading Post built on a Navajo settlement.

Once researched, Navajo Shepherds doubles the rate at which livestock fattens over time, with an additional 30% when tasked to Livestock Pens, Farms and Villages. In The Asian Dynasties, this technology also increases the XP generation rate of Indian livestock when tasked to Sacred Fields by 30%, and the contribution of Japanese livestock to Shrines' resource/XP trickle by 30%.

Navajo Shepherds is exceedingly powerful for civilizations which makes use of livestock more than others, especially British, Chinese, Indians, Iroquois and Japanese.
