being the right specifications,” Rocket said. “This year we got $92 for them and on average when we shore them they cut 3.5kg of wool for six months of growth, so on the whole it was a good result.” The shearing schedule has the main mob being shorn at the end of September-early October however the wethers are shorn again a few weeks prior to going to the abattoir which is usually mid to early July. For the main flock the average micron sits at about 20 across 55 bales of wool while the wether hoggets which are shorn, again prior to going over the hooks, most recently recorded 18.7 micron. Lambing is in a tight six weeks from late May through most of June and Rocket said they run their breeding program a little differently to others in the area. “We lamb a little bit later than some people here,” he said. “The idea is to push out the lambing so the lambs are dropping in the middle of seeding which sounds a bit crazy but ❐ The Roberts run a straight Merino ewe flock of 850 head. means that we aren’t marking them during seeding the following year.” “Another added bonus if the season permits is that the ewes are hopefully lambing onto green feed if we get a good start.” Percentages have seen the Roberts record 96 per cent for this year’s lambing and while this is something they keep their eye on in terms of the breeding and feeding factors, it is very much in the hands of the season. “I’d say we have averaged about 90pc over the last 10 years,” Rocket said. “Feeding wise we do supplement a bit by trail feeding some lupins if we get really short but we are mostly pretty reliant on what is in the paddocks.” When looking at the livestock to crop ratio the Roberts are sitting at about 75pc crop to 25pc livestock and at this year’s seeding they have put in 2400ha of equal quantities of wheat and barley. Crops are grazed, not by the sheep but by a mob of 50 Angus breeders which the Roberts also incorporate into their livestock concern. “We try to use the sheep sometimes,” Rocket said. “But we haven’t had much success with it as the paddocks are often too big and it’s hard to get that that short sharp intensity to crash graze an area. “We have found the cows to be good in that regard.” Looking further down the track, the Roberts are pretty happy with the size of the various operations they have going aside from rebuilding their sheep flock. They have no plans to make any major changes and haven’t been tempted by the prime lamb market with their sheep operation. “We had an ‘accidental experiment’ with some fat lambs after a rogue prime lamb sire got in with one of our mobs and while the lambs looked good to start with we found it very hard to finish them without pouring feed and money down their throats,“ Rocket said. “So from that small experience I realised that if we ever did do something along the fat lamb lines, we would have to feedlot to fatten them and for us that doesn’t really go with our low maintenance, easy-care operation.” “With our seasonal variability we are happy sticking with our Merino operation and keeping things simple.” 1403968 • Founded 2000 • Flock No. 4945 & 1481 • Narembeen Inaugural On-property Ram Sale Thursday, September 26 Merino and Poll Merino rams on offer Derek & Wendy Hooper Ph/Fax: 9065 3053 Mobile: 0429 906 180 Email: whooper@comswest.net.au Stud Classer: Kevin Broad 0408 683 671 Private selections available on-property WA M E R I N O 2 0 1 3 121 Newdegate's Merino presence HE Merino presence at this September’s Newdegate Machinery Field Days will be as strong as it has ever been.

Following on from the field day’s 25th silver anniversary celebrations in 2011, the State Merino Ewe Hogget competition will continue its popular commercial reputation of attracting quality entries from various sheep growing regions of WA. Also as a result of the increased number of Merino studs on display at the field days over the last couple of years, they now have a permanent new home on the site.
