How Yorkshire farm is using EID to find most productive ewes >More in © Michael Priestley A Texel-cross flock is trying to improve future profitability by using electronic identification (EID) data to select for lines that can wean two 35kg lambs at 90 days. The Wilsons at Searchlight Farm, Middlesbrough, have been learning about flock data and EID recording since investing in their first hand-held reader in 2010. They created a nucleus flock of 120 ewes in 2019 from their commercial 600-head Texel-cross and Mule flock. This was done to improve growth from grass, maternal ability and to control supplementary feeding costs. EID helps manage breeding decisions and avoid inbreeding, while allowing the farm to close its flock and breed its own replacements.
