rams

Join us on farm at Nithdale Station for a practical and engaging Ram Buying Workshop designed to help farmers make confident, informed decisions when selecting and managing their rams. Choosing the right sires is one of the most important investments in your flock’s productivity, and this session will arm you with the tools to make those choices count.

Speakers

  • Jo Scott from Targeted Breeding will share her expertise on identifying structural soundness, genetic merit, and key traits that influence on-farm performance.
  • Lisa Roberts from Vetsouth will follow with valuable insights on ram health, including body condition, parasite management, and pre-tupping checks to ensure rams are fit, fertile, and ready for the mating season.

Community BBQ

After the session from 4pm, we invite all to join us for a relaxed community BBQ and refreshments — an opportunity to come together after a difficult week of wild weather, power outages and significant damage. Bring your family, work team and neighbours for a chance to connect off farm. We would love to see you there!
