40th annual on-property ram sale
Thursday September 7th on-property at Haddon Rig Merino & Poll Merino Stud.
Inspections from 9am. Sale starts at 12:30pm.
Since we launched our Poll Stud in 2016, we’ve been blown away by the support of our existing and new clients and by their feedback about our rams and genetics.
There’s nothing more satisfying than seeing our clients achieving consistently strong results with their HR genetics.
It's also been fantastic to see the results of our continued investment in our Stud. DNA testing, our large ET and AI program, strategic sire purchases and a focus on data-backed decision making is really helping us fast-track our genetic vision and continue to meet the demands of the future industry.
