  • Jason and Barry Stokes have set up a highly efficient sheep farm with laneways, covered yards, good fencing, sprinklers in the yards, and a feedlot.

    Agreed,, a very efficient and well run operation. Great to see the effort made to look after the people and the animals.There is nothing wrong with a long term farm plan.Results are evident.. Complements on your story telling. Ben., a good eye for detail.

    Three questions: Why do you weigh the wool, what were the ladies doing with the wool when they threw it on the tables, and what were they doing with the yellow stuff on the backs of the ewes? Thanks.

      The wool is weighed to select the heaviest cutter, the ladies were skirting the fleece to take off all the dirt and the yellow is to control lice and sometimes fly control.
