The NLDP aims to assess the effects of mob size and stocking rate on lamb survival. The project collects data from producers who pregnancy scan for multiple lambs, and run single and twin lambs in separate mobs through until they are marked.

Anyone who is interested, they can complete a short survey via the web link below. And the first 100 producers who sign up prior to June 20 will be eligible to receive a complementary ticket to the annual Best Wool Best Lamb Conference, to be held at Bendigo in Victoria on June 28.
