Leading Sheep is an education framework for leading the adoption of new technologies and practices to increase the productivity of the Queensland sheep industry.

Leading Sheep aims to do this through sheep producers;

Implementing recognised management systems in response to emerging international requirements.

Adopting enhanced sheep and property management practices.

Improving the profitability and sustainability of their enterprise.

Reducing losses due to predation through integrated pest management control plans.

A number of innovative approaches have been identified as necessary to increase the potential impact of the project. Enhancing communication opportunities through the use of modern technology, engaging youth in regional activities, better understanding of the key profit drivers and enhancing interpersonal skills of individuals will all contribute to the success of the project.
