| We have recently downsized, retaining the steeper part of the farm that needs further development. Our focus is to breed high fertility sheep that can wean their lambs evenly and to heavier weights on this country. Worm resistance and eye muscle are a high priority as well as retaining the characteristics of Perendale wool. We now have more time to focus on improving these areas and aim to compete with top breeders in New Zealand. | |||||
