Assessing, classing, and selecting sheep

Achieving optimal genetic gain involves issues ranging from understanding the impact the environment has on how sheep look and perform (phenotype), the need to reduce the impact of non-genetic variables so the phenotypic differences are due as much as possible to genetic differences (genotype), to having a breeding objective that is focused on what the market will be seeking in the next 10 years for a specific environment.
