Sorry, I will try to illustrate below:

pigeons_and_doves is an acf repeater that collects one set of data with two keys
other_pigeons_and_doves is an acf repeater that collects one set of data with two keys
when combining them into the array with this sort method it is listing them as

pigeons_and_doves key values first
A some name in list (pigeons_and_doves)
Z some name in list (pigeons_and_doves)
X some name in list (pigeons_and_doves)

other_pigeons_and_doves key values first
F some name in list (other_pigeons_and_doves)
B some name in list (other_pigeons_and_doves)
D some name in list (other_pigeons_and_doves)

so when they are run out in the loop that you advised with the usort they are displaying like this: (pigeons_and_doves all at top of list and other_pigeons_and_doves all at bottom of the list)

A some name in list (pigeons_and_doves)
X some name in list (pigeons_and_doves)
Z some name in list (pigeons_and_doves)
B some name in list (other_pigeons_and_doves)
D some name in list (other_pigeons_and_doves)
F some name in list (other_pigeons_and_doves)

INSTEAD OF LIKE THIS
A some name in list (pigeons_and_doves)
B some name in list (other_pigeons_and_doves)
D some name in list (other_pigeons_and_doves)
F some name in list (other_pigeons_and_doves)
X some name in list (pigeons_and_doves)
Z some name in list (pigeons_and_doves)

Thanks, but that is still sorting the list into the first and second acf rows.

They sort in their own original rows but the combined array is not merging.

Thank you, I managed to get that but they are still not merging alphabetically.
Here is my code:
`<!– ********************************** PIGEONS AND DOVES –>
<?php if( ($pigeons_and_doves || $other_pigeons_and_doves) ): //<!– THIS WILL NOT HIDE when empty –>

// Add all rows of $this_array to the array of all rows.
if ( have_rows( ‘pigeons_and_doves’ ) ) :
while ( have_rows( ‘pigeons_and_doves’ ) ) : the_row();
$final_array[] = [
‘bird_name’ => get_sub_field( ‘pigeon_and_dove_species’ ) ,
‘price’ => get_sub_field( ‘bird_price’ ) ,
];
endwhile;
endif;

// Add all rows of $that_array to the array of all rows.
if ( have_rows( ‘other_pigeons_and_doves’ ) ) :
while ( have_rows( ‘other_pigeons_and_doves’ ) ) : the_row();
$final_array[] = [
‘bird_name’ => get_sub_field( ‘other_pigeon_and_dove_species’ ) ,
‘price’ => get_sub_field( ‘other_bird_price’ ) ,
];
endwhile;
endif;
sort($final_array);
?>
<div class=”animal-listing-col”>
<table>
<tr>
<th>Pigeons and Doves</th>
<th>PRICE</th>
</tr>
<?php foreach($final_array as $row) {
?>
<tr>
<td><?php echo $row[‘bird_name’]; ?> </td>
<!– CURRENCY –> <td><?php if( get_field(‘currency’) && $row[‘price’] && is_numeric($row[‘bird_price’])): the_field(‘currency’); endif; ?>
<?php echo $row[‘price’]; ?>
</td>
</tr>
<?php } ?>
</table>
</div> <!– end pigeons loop –>
<?php endif; ?>
<!– ********************************** end pigeons and doves –>

Thanks, what I mean is to combine two arrays (captured from two different acf repeater rows), so that they combine and can be sorted alphabetically.
Each repeater has these fields
$this_array = repeater fields $arg1 and $arg2
$that_array = repeater fields $arg1 and $arg2
$result = array_merge_recursive($ar1, $ar2);
sort($result);

This sample does note combine them and display them alphabetically:

<?php
$this_array                           = get_field('this_array');
$that_array                           = get_field('that_array');
?>
<ul class="panel">
  <?php    if( have_rows('this_array') ): ?>
      <?php  while ( have_rows('this_array') ) : the_row();
          $arg1                    = get_sub_field('arg1');
          $arg2                      = get_sub_field('arg2');
      ?>
          <li><?php the_sub_field('arg1') ?><span>
              <?php the_sub_field('arg2') ?></span></li>
      <?php endwhile; ?>
      <?php  else : // no rows found
  endif; ?>
  <?php    if( have_rows('that_array') ): ?>
        <?php  while ( have_rows('that_array') ) : the_row();
            $arg1                    = get_sub_field('arg1');
            $arg2                      = get_sub_field('arg2');
          ?>
                  <li><?php the_sub_field('arg1') ?><span>
                      <?php the_sub_field('arg2') ?>
                      </span></li>
        <?php endwhile; ?>
        <?php  else : // no rows found
  endif; ?>
</ul>
