OUR STUD
We would like to acknowledge our long term and new clients for their support throughout the year.
​
Charinga are Merino seed stock studs, with both poll and horn genetics, and sell genetics across Australia and Internationally.
The studs continue to be commercially driven, and focus on wool cut and quality while maintaining a large meaty frame.
​
We continue breeding balanced Merinos (horn & poll) which have the potency to be used in the stud and commercial Merino industry. Maintaining the wool and skin quality with true fibre density, alignment, nourishment and brightness with exceptional wool cut (quality & quantity) while enhancing early maturity, muscling, structure and fertility.
​
The result is a great Merino with very good wool, frame, fertility and constitution - and most importantly, very profitable - hence the many successes our clients are enjoying in state and national competitions.
FLOCK PERFORMANCE
"A self replacing Charinga flock is very profitable"
Charinga Merino seed stock studs, with both poll and horn genetics, and sell genetics across Australia and Internationally.
​
The studs continue to be commercially driven, and focus on wool cut and quality while maintaining a large meaty frame. Our genetics profitability is reflected in the results of the NSW DPI's "Merino Bloodline Performance", a trial comparing 77 bloodlines over 10 years. Pushing boundaries, we have clients achieving cuts of 6kg every 6 months.
Good Merino ewes are returning between $400 - $500 ANNUALLY!
The outlook for heavy cutting, fertile, medium wool Merinos remains excellent.
