Wool growers are accused of being slow on the uptake of genetic selection tools now available through the Microselect genetic breeding value heritability calculation service. Reportedly, Merino breeders could realise a firther 25% genetic gain through the use of genomics. Are the variables surrounding your breeding programs clear cut enough to pursue genetic traits focused on one commodity alone or do you need to maintain a multipurpose flock for the flexibility of lamb production as well? Perhaps the scope of genetic trait needs to be broadened into a sell all, multi-commodity pursuit. Tell us your thoughts. #grazingaustralia
