Showcase your shearing skills at the Sheep Shearing competition!

 

Sheep shearing is a key part of Australia’s agricultural heritage, with deep cultural significance. The first recorded tally of sheep shorn in a single day was 30 in 1835. By 1892, the record had climbed to 321, and in 1986, Western Australia achieved a record wool clip of 231,000,000 kg, highlighting the importance of shearing in our agricultural landscape.

 

The Sheep Shearing competition at the Perth Royal Show celebrates these tradition, and provides a platform to educate the public about this vital industry.
