    Record prices and total clearance mark standout sale for Golden Hill stud (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Everybody involved in this year's Golden Hill White Suffolk and UltraWhite on-property ram sale was astounded when an extraordinary show of buying support pushed price levels to an all-time high for the Kukerin-based stud. The day was hot, both literally and figuratively, as temperatures in the Ditchburn family's shearing shed warmed up and so too did the prices. As has been the case at a number of this year's British and Australasian breed sales, demand outstripped supply which resulted in pric

    How saltbush has helped the Lehmann family to create a premium lamb product (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    A different lamb marketing pathway has helped to ease the pressure of the 2024 WA sheep market downturn for prime lamb producers Sam and Lauren Lehmann.

At the end of that decade, defined by economic hardship, food shortages and families that understood the true definition of grit, Mr Simcock realised that dream. He moved to Manjimup, worked on farms in order to save his pennies and eventually bought and cleared a parcel of land where he established an a

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    It is shaping up to be a variable cropping season at Kojonup, as well as in several of its neighbouring shires. By and large most farmers are enjoying what they have described as a good year in their reliable pocket of the Great Southern.
