We've reached the end of season 8 and we've got a great Q&A podcast for you. We have questions from “What's your opinion on Australia’s LEQ index compared to focusing solely on IMF and shear force figures if your number one breeding objective is to increase eating quality?” to "Is there any correlation between worm burdens/high genetic WEC and dermatitis/wool rot?"Mark also covers breeding for footrot resistance in crossbred (non-merino) sheep and how the industry can go about improving that at a producer level. We also cover the future of neXtgen Agri and where Mark hopes the industry will be in 20/30 years time, and it's an exciting place to be sure! Head Shepherd is brought to you by neXtgen Agri International Limited. We help livestock farmers get the most out of the genetics they farm with.
