Studs who are considering running the “Ram Select” workshop for their clients in 2017 need to start planning now. Steve and Debbie can assist with this process and modify the workshop to suit your business and clients. The “Ram Select” workshop is aimed at commercial producers to improve their knowledge of Australian Sheep Breeding Values and how to use them to meet their own breeding objective.

Debbie has recently developed the 3 hour training workshop on how to use Excel for EID and data management.

With more and more people deciding to tag their sheep with electronic tags (EID), the ability to manage their bucket files and manage the data they collect will become quicker and easier after this workshop.

Steve is busy scanning and running “Matesel” joining solutions for sheep studs across Australia. If you are a member of MerinoSelect or Lambplan and would like to increase your rate of genetic gain whilst reducing inbreeding and co-ancestry and / or want help selecting sires and dams and formulating a joining solution, contact Steve for assistance on 0428 786 327.

“Matesel” is a free program for use by accredited operators.

Cost of the service is for time spent and only depends on the number of joining solutions you require.
