The fellas partook in a very informative tour of the Stawall abattoir last month.Organised by Western Ag in conjunction with Pete Mecham from Zeotis. He spoke of the benefits of using eryvac vaccine with a demonstration detailing as much, as parts of the sheep caracas has to be removed from arthritic limbs, losing 2 - 6 kg of caracas weight . <br />
<br />
The Stawall abs are providing a large percentage of processed and packaged lamb to Aldi stores. It is great to see that our lamb is processed close to home and stocking our local stores.<br />
<br />
As well as providing for the local supermarkets and butchers Frewstal abattoir also export lamb around the world. They are the fastest slaughter chain in the Southern Hemisphere with a rate of up to 13 per minute. <br />
