  10. Genomics – breeders can benefit a lot. - Genomics is the future - DNA – benefit for future breeding. CHARL VISAGIE • Merino industry - very small regarding to world’s fibre and meat production. Therefore focus must be on quality to be competetive in the world. • Biodiversity is very important to keep nature balanced. • Allen Savory • To sustain food security, the production of food must double by 2050.
