Our certification and accreditation programs provide commercial producers with confidence that every ram has been bred, measured and managed to the highest industry standards.
SHEEP GENETICS AND LAMBPLAN
Kentish Downs has been a committed participant in Sheep Genetics and LAMBPLAN since the program's inception.
By combining comprehensive performance recording with rigorous visual selection, we identify sheep that deliver measurable gains in growth, muscling, structural integrity and commercial profitability.
Every breeding decision is supported by objective genetic information, allowing our clients to make informed ram selections with confidence.
GOLD DATA QUALITY SCORE
Kentish Downs proudly maintains Sheep Genetics Gold Data Quality Score (DQS) status, recognising our commitment to collecting accurate, consistent and reliable performance data.
Gold DQS accreditation is awarded only to studs that meet strict industry standards for data integrity, giving buyers confidence that Estimated Breeding Values (ASBVs) accurately reflect the genetic potential of our sheep.
This commitment to quality recording ensures our genetics are independently benchmarked and trusted throughout the Australian sheep industry.
OVINE BRUCELLOSIS ACCREDITED FREE
Kentish Downs has proudly participated in the NSW Ovine Brucellosis Accredited Free Flock Scheme since 1981 (Certificate No. 82271). Accreditation is maintained through regular veterinary testing, with all rams examined and laboratory tested to ensure they remain free of Ovine Brucellosis.
This long-standing accreditation provides buyers with additional confidence when introducing Kentish Downs genetics into their own breeding programs.

At Kentish Downs, certification is more than meeting industry requirements—it reflects our commitment to transparency, genetic integrity and producing Poll Dorset genetics that perform in commercial production systems.
By combining objective measurement, independent validation, stringent health protocols and decades of disciplined breeding, we continue to deliver rams that offer confidence, reliability and long-term profitability.
