Assessor Comments
230 Merino ewes, Sept/Oct 2025 drop. July shorn. Ewes ave 52 kg. Ewes are well bred well grown for age and in 2 & 3 score. Ewes are plain bodied, typical free growing western Riverina types. Merritop has won the Peppin Shaw ewe competition on 5 occasions so definitely some of the districts best. Please ring with any questions.
