Non-mulesed pathway driven by data & a whole farm perspective – 16th July 2022




Commodity Conversations show

Summary: Demand for non-mulesed merino wool shows no sign of abating and as the dominant producer of merino wool, increased supply will have to come from Australia eventually. This week we have Sally Martin from Sheep Metrix talking to Rob Herrmann about her & her teams approach to farm management including producers on the non-mulesed path. Sally has 30+ years of experience working in the sheep industry and knows well the complexities involved in managing a farm business. Her method of assisting farmers on the non-mulesed journey is considered from each farms unique perspective.  Sally is passionate about using science & data to make informed decisions and today she shares some sound insights and advice for wool producers. Sheep Metrix are currently working in partnership with Meat & Livestock Australia on a producer demonstration project supporting sheep producers transition to non-mulesed sheep which you can read more about here: https://www.sheepmetrix.com.au/initiatives#transition-non-mules
