Episode description

This week, Sarah Blumer leads us through some of the exciting research she is involved with at Murdoch University in Western Australia. Sarah shares the on-farm trials currently underway to help confirm 'best-bet' management guidelines for triplet-bearing ewes. She also explains the concept of whole-body energy and its importance in breeding a resilient sheep that optimises per-hectare performance without compromising animal welfare (and shares some of the work underway in this area). Sarah's energy and enthusiasm for sheep make this episode a great listen!
