Myth: SRS Genetics Only Works in Specific Climates

Scientific Evidence: SRS genetics have been proven to produce adaptable and resilient sheep that perform well across diverse climates. Dr. Watts’ research highlights that SRS-bred sheep are selected for environmental resilience as well as wool quality.

Supporting Studies: A multi-climate study conducted by CSIRO in collaboration with SRS breeders demonstrated that SRS sheep maintained stable wool quality and health metrics across varied environments. From arid to temperate climates, SRS flocks performed on par or better than traditional Merinos, underscoring the flexibility of SRS genetics in adapting to different conditions (CSIRO Adaptation Research, 2012).
