00:00G'day, Zach Braxton Smith reporting for Queensland Country Life.
00:04Meat and Livestock Australia is pushing ahead with its plans to develop a multi-breed genetic
00:09evaluation platform. MLA announced this move in July last year, said there was consultation with
00:16producers in the lead-up, and there are benefits. So the big question is, why are breed societies
00:22reacting to this move now? Well, Angus Australia announced on July 9 that it had been approached
00:29by MLA to help it develop this multi-breed platform. Breed societies say it's not something their
00:35members have actively asked for, and there could be risks to comparing cattle across breeds.
