DU TOIT FARming enterprise
|
|
Apart from the Damara and Meatmaster studs, the farming enterprise also consists of a Nguni stud, a commercial meat sheep flock and a 27 kilometer hiking trail. To meet the demands of the international market place, the business made the following adaptations : |

| They deliver naturally produced meat for a niche market, since the Damara and the Meatmaster are ideally suited for the production of organic or chemical free meat for an increasingly popular local and global market. It ensures premium returns. |

They embarked on a embryo-flushing programme of Elite Damara and Meatmasters for export, since these sheep adapt well to any grazing condition and, for example, the price gain for Damara X Merino first crosses for export from Australia to the Middle East is 44 % compared to Merino wethers. |
