Dohne prime lamb producer Ranald Warby is quick to acknowledge the benefits of his Arrow V-Express machine after just five months of use, particularly the fact that it allows him to perform a number of tasks on his sheep in just one pass. Gone, too, are the days of fighting rams in a race when drenching and the usual tired back after a day of crutching lambs.
