@stationmum101 Best of luck for the Livestock SA election. Hope it’s not as gruelling as the AWI Director election which I’m battling at the moment. It’s made even harder when you have non-levy paying parties actively lobbying against you so that they can gain some control over the board.

@farmboyG@BenDooley8@PhilWhitp4@Agrista_au@DavidSandow1 Is there a program available where you can enter flock structure, number of twins/singles/dry scanned, body weights etc that can be used to easily calculate the dse of your whole enterprise? This is quite a task when done manually.
@GusWhyte Gus, did you watch the @woolinnovation webinar last night with John Francis @Agrista_au going through his report “Why Stay in Wool”? Worth looking at the recording.
Last week I updated my training for the Consultative Committee for Emergency Animal Diseases (CCEAD) where I am a veterinary representative for the wool industry through @WoolProducers.
In an EAD response it is important that affected industries are represented at all levels.
A great story on the duel income streams from the Merino:
