ONCE again, the Hamilton Regional Livestock Exchange has gone into seven figures for selling sheep during a financial year, reaching the milestone early during yesterday's sale.

Hamilton and District Stock Agents Association president, Warren Clark, predicted a similar figure as last year and was pleased about the continued success of the local facility.

“It’s always a good feather in the cap to do a million,” he said.

“All our stock come from about an 80-kilometre radius – just shows you how strong an area this is (with) sheep and lambs.”
