Had a friend of my sons here today helping weigh the lambs. Started explaining small things and he got really interested. Growth rates, EBVs, on farm selection, IgA, fly strike, tail length, birth coats, skin thickness, culling policies, forage only vs cereals and forage quality - we talked about all sorts of stuff. I think as an industry we need to take the time to explain things fully when someone has the interest and capacity to listen. It was refreshing to see the enthusiasm and interest from a non-farm child.
