Greenfields Merino

At Greenfields we concentrate on breeding sheep with high fleece weights, fertility, good carcase traits and early growth rates.

We place a stong emphasis on strict visual classing of all sheep and use objective measurement to assist in our assessment. 

Artificial Insemination programs using leading industry sires continue to improve the quality of our genetics and help meet our breeding objectives.

Greenfields has been breeding high quality Merino and Poll Merino’s for over 70 years and has achieved great success at many major sheep shows and great Ram Sale results. Our sheep are bred to thrive in a wide range of environments.

We offer a free classing service to our clients and are always available to provide general advice with ram selection and flock management.
 

Since 1949

Greenfields Merino and Poll Merino Stud is owned by Robert and Celia Sullivan and their 3 children Lachie, Jesse and Evelyn and is located approximately 40km North of Burra in the Mid North of SA, in a 425mm rainfall area.

The merino stud was founded in 1949 on Ashrose bloodlines, while Collinsville blood formed the basis of the Poll Merino Stud established in 1957.

Emphasis is on breeding early maturing, plain bodied sheep with sound confirmation and strong constitution with good carcase traits. Our wool is well nourished, bright and stylish and high yielding, with our ewe flock cutting an average fleece of 8 – 9kg.
