THE sun was shining in Marnoo as nine Merino sheep studs opened their gates for the region’s annual field day.
Old Dundee, Charinga, Banavie, Gowandale, Belbourie, Oakbank, Forest Springs, Sohnic, and Wallaloo Park took part in the Marnoo Merino Field Day on Thursday, which saw people visit from throughout the state.
Marnoo Field Day president Tim Polkinghorne said the event is a good opportunity for studs to show off their flock.
“There’s a fair bit of diversity between the [nine] studs, whether they’re focusing on lambing percentage or productivity, but one thing we’re all trying to focus on is profitability for our clients,” Mr Polkinghorne said.
