Quick-fire Roadshows

B+LNZ Genetics is holding a series of meetings around the country for stud sheep breeders and users of SIL. We will be covering the main innovations, changes and technologies coming through in 2017 that may benefit your breeding program. As the name suggests, the pace of the afternoon should ensure everyone has a chance to discuss what’s on their mind. Chris Kelly our Chairman will be at the roadshows to hear feedback.
