Pastoral areas big deliveries of rams
Deliveries of Merino rams to the bark country have surged this year, reaching 10 000 in total. Western Australian breeders and notable shipments from South Australia and New South Wales supply many stations from Murchison to the Great Southern, with mounts to Carnarvon, Port Hedland, and other North West ports. Major consignments include Mount Augustus, Meekatharra, Bungaree, and Pinnacles Station, reflecting heavy cross‑state commerce in breeding stock.
