Cassilis district producer Damon Soster says his farm profitability has increased dramatically since using the Clipex Sheep Handler to weigh his flock.
“We used to just eyeball the sheep, but to be able to get accurate weights quickly and efficiently pays for itself,” explained Damon. “The Clipex Sheep Handler is fantastic for weighing – it is so efficient. One person and two good dogs can manage the whole process – you could weigh 550 / 600 in an hour if you are having a good run.” Damon said he purchased the Clipex Sheep Handler two years ago to decrease labour costs.
