Kurra-Wirra Annual On-Site Merino Ram Sale
Friday 23rd November 2018
At Kurra-Wirra we have been very focused on current profit drivers such as Wool Production, Early Growth, EMA, FAT and sheep doing ability.
By shifting our point of maturity to a slightly younger age by lifting our PWT we are able to breed a more fertile, higher yielding animal. This started to show effect with a 24% rise in our scanning results in our youngest and most genetically advanced ewes.
