Karbullah Poll Merino

Our Story

Local Family Farm

Karbullah Poll Merino is run by Mark and Vicki Murphy and family, becoming a registered SRS merino stud in 2001 after learning about skin biology and wool quality from Dr Jim Watts.

A Young Sire Program involving fellow SRS Studs has allowed us access to cutting edge genetics.  Huge advantages are coming from this program enabling benchmarking, improving genetic gains and increased accuracy for all SRS studs and clients involved.   Thank you to Dr Jim Watts’ skin testing and knowledge,  Sheep genetics and the principals of these Studs for making this possible. 

In 2007 we relocated Boyanga Meateor Merinos, Ted and Margaret Murphy’s stud to Goondiwindi, from Mungindi, NSW, to run in conjunction with Karbullah, upon the death of Mark’s father Ted.

Boyanga’s genetics focused on the same traits as Karbullah, being based on Banavie Park VIC, Gowandale VIC, Keri Keri NSW, Glendamar and Wallaloo Park prior to coming to Goondiwindi.  Boyanga has been fully incorporated into Karbullah Poll Merinos and they now run as one stud.
