Date Time AWI sheep classing workshops A spectacular South Australian backdrop to the sheep classing workshop held at Tom, Angus and Matt Ashby’s property ‘North Ashrose’ at Gulnare in October. AWI’s sheep industry specialist Stuart Hodgson is explaining the practical skills involved in sheep classing. AWI’s hands-on sheep classing workshops resumed in July on properties across eastern Australia, following the easing of restrictions related to COVID-19. The workshops are aimed at helping woolgrowers in their sheep selection and breeding programs to increase the productivity of Merinos. AWI regularly runs one-day sheep classing workshops, for people of all ages and enterprises, that are a practical way to learn about increasing the production of their Merino flocks.
