What’s next?
As lambs mature and data rolls in, we’ll be measuring:
Growth and meat traits
Reproduction and lamb survival
Heat tolerance, immune response, and methane emissions
Shedding speed and seasonal patterns
Fleece characteristics (where relevant)
All of this will help us understand which genetics have the potential to future-proof New Zealand sheep farming—and which ones don’t.
Upcoming events
