Dohne Sheep Information Day
The owner/manager of Delmore Dohnes, Ross Jacobson, says that their doing ability has been very impressive through some very tough seasons.
He is keen to increase his flock numbers and given the Dohnes performance he is enthusiastic to also share his knowledge.
Ross is holding an Information Day and Ram Sale to be held on his Forcett property on the 29th of this month. RSVP’s are appreciated for catering purposes.
