Developed in collaboration with Dr Mark Ferguson of NeXtgen Agri, the new index combines 22 traits into one customised breeding value, helping stud and commercial producers select sheep aligned with their production, resilience and carcase goals.

Built on years of objective measurements, the index considers traits across wool quality, growth, fertility, carcase performance and resilience, while building on the inherent strengths of the SRS sheep.

SRS Genetics Chairman Norm Smith says the index provides another practical selection tool for breeders and commercial producers.

“The SRS Index is another tool to help breeders achieve their goal of a highly profitable, ethical and resilient breeding flock.”

SRS® technology has been shaping Merino genetics since 1998.

Developed by the late Dr Jim Watts, the system selects for fibre density, length and quality to produce high-performing, plain-bodied Merinos that are easy to manage, naturally resistant to flystrike and produce exceptional quality wool.
