Introduction There is no parallel for the depth and quality of the sires and options LIC is putting before commercial dairy farmers this year. The 12 December 2009 Animal Evaluation run saw LIC secure 19 out of the top 20 Holstein-Friesian sire places. This thorough domination of the rankings is unmatched by any other genetics company in the dairy world – confirming that the science, research and breeding decisions made at LIC are paying huge dividends to farmers. In this changing world, there has never been a more opportune time for US dairy people, who understand that PROFIT is the key to sustainable farming, to be the innovators and drivers in a new and exciting future. On the heels of the global recession, farmers are calling out for a high genetic population of true dairy breeds, which are efficient high producers, easy-care, fertile and profitable over multiple lactations. When it comes to making profit, efficiency is key, the difference between production and the cost of that production being profit. Breeding is one area where you can make the largest long-term difference to your profitability. New Zealand’s Breeding Worth evaluation and LIC’s breeding selection program are designed to produce the most profitable cows possible, with the addition of good conformation and management traits. The Sire 190HO0047 Puketiro Frostman S1F is a case in point. Combining the best breeding selection available to LIC, Frostman is one of the highest ranked production Holstein-Friesian sires. He is also in the top percentile for udder rating and boasts a fertility ranking that is higher than most Jerseys. LIC is producing these types of sires in all breeds. The 2010 sire line includes a great selection for the US dairy farmer: The fantastic line up of Jerseys sires, a Holstein-Friesian selection that just keeps getting stronger, and some great new KiwiCross™ and Ayrshire (Red breed) sires. In addition to this, LIC and Taurus Service Inc are for the first time offering a small and elite selection of young genomic sires and sexed semen. LIC sires and semen have a well-earned reputation for being very fertile, so the addition of sexed semen will no doubt prove popular.
USA base for LIC – and partnership with Dairy Farmers of America In an exciting new development, LIC has opened an office in the USA and is investing significantly in the US market by forming strategic relationships with key US industry companies. LIC continues its partnership with Taurus Service Inc, providing farmers throughout the USA with the best grazing genetics in the world. Taurus and LIC continue to look at ways to meet the demands of the market through efficient delivery and quality control. We are excited to extend our reach and expertise in genetics, grazing management, and systems through a partnership with Dairy Farmers of America. The formation of Dairy Grazing Services (DGS) Consultancy, for the first time, provides US dairy farmers with expert farm consultancy to help build more exciting, sustainable and profitable businesses. Now, being an LIC user is so much more that just purchasing semen. At last you can be a partner with one of the largest herd improvement organizations in the world. You will be able to tap into the resources that only this unique partnership can deliver – achieving long-term relationships where your success is paramount to our success. Can you afford to wait any longer? I invite you to make contact with LIC USA or Taurus Service Inc. Join the growing number of global farmers who are looking to LIC to individually tailor their dairy breeding program so they become more successful, sustainable and profitable. Dairying is a great industry to be involved in and the LIC USA team looks forward to helping you achieve new levels of production and profit. Philip J Wicks General Manager, LIC USA

Efficient and profitable Fertility and longevity Calving ease sire A2A2 Sire
The demand for Frostman worldwide will still be high so secure your order early. Being a Dano out of a Hugo cow, two exceptional LIC bulls, it is not surprising that this bull transmits all the traits we want to see in a modern Holstein-Friesian. Smaller stature, high production, outstanding fertility and overall longevity, very low somatic cell score and magnificent udders. As a bonus, he is also well below breed average for calving difficulty. This complete package adds up to one thing – profit!

To reduce costs and ensure farm profitability, dairy farmers around the world are increasingly turning to the pasture based systems that New Zealand has adopted for more than 100 years. These same farmers recognise that success starts with genetics and that New Zealand’s genetics are the most extensively tested and proven for their ability to turn pasture into profit.

LIC has been investigating the possibilities of using DNA (Genomics) in our breeding program since 1994, but the introduction of Genomically Selected semen has been rapid – the concept was first put forward only as recently as 2001. LIC has been quick to put huge resource into developing Genomic Selection technology, increasing the rate of genetic gain in farmers’ herds more rapidly.

Reading New Zealand Bull Proofs Breeding Worth
Traits Other than Production (TOP)
New Zealand ranks dairy bulls and cows by Breeding Worth (BW) for their expected ability to breed profitable and efficient replacements. The ranking compares across ages and breeds. Currently the traits included in Breeding Worth and the associated economic values are:
The general range for most traits is between -1.00 and +1.00. Bulls with TOP Breeding Values (BV) between -0.30 and +0.30 are not expected to influence much change in the trait. The descriptors of rump width, capacity and dairy conformation are assessed in relation to the animal’s size. This is different to almost all other major dairying countries and is beneficial because it enables the identification of animals that leave strength, width and desirable frame traits regardless of the animal’s stature (refer to Comparing across breeds). Farmers score two year old heifers for the four traits related to their management at milking time (Adaptability to milking, Shed temperament and Milking speed) and the overall acceptability of the heifers as herd member (Overall opinion).
Breeding Worth = (Protein x $7.846) + (Milkfat x $1.646) + (Milk Volume x $-0.083) + (Liveweight x $-1.171) + (Fertility x $2.790) + (Residual Survival x $0.042) + (Somatic cell x $-28.924). In general the higher the BW of the bull the more profit likely to be produced by his offspring. The top bulls in New Zealand are now in the $200-300 BW range. Some care needs to be taken when using this figure, however, as the economic weights used in its calculation are specifically based on the New Zealand economic environment.
Fertility % (within breed) The objective for herd reproductive performance in most New Zealand herds is to achieve high pregnancy rates in a short time period following the planned start of mating, and to maintain calving intervals very close to 365 days. The Fertility BV refers to the extra likelihood (expressed as a percentage) of a cow to conceive, sustain a pregnancy and calve in the first 42 days of the herd’s calving period. A Fertility BV of 8% indicates that 4% more daughters are expected to calve in this period compared to a bull with a BV of 0%.
Comparing across breeds New Zealand’s Animal Evaluation Model ranks animals across breeds. As Jerseys are generally smaller and produce less milk than Holstein-Friesians, most Jersey sires will have negative values for Stature, Liveweight and Milk Volume on an across-breed base. To help evaluate individual bulls within breed LIC has presented Stature, Milk liters, Liveweight and Fertility proofs within breed for its offshore website and catalogues. Breed averages for traits that are markedly differently between breeds are indicated in the table below.

A sire transmits half of its Longevity Breeding Value to its daughters. Consequently, a bull with a Longevity Value of +200 days is expected to leave daughters that will last 100 days longer in the average New Zealand herd, than a bull with Longevity of zero. Longevity is a feature of New Zealand dairy animals. Within the pedigree for each sire in this Directory we have included the KiwiCross™ Ayrshire number of lactations completed by the dam and maternal grand dam to date, along with their 112 -26 average Milkfat and protein -9 -1 production.

Calving Difficulty The Calving difficulty BV evaluates the suitability of a bull for use over yearling heifers. This trait has a low heritability, and therefore generally lower reliability. LIC assigns each bull to one of three groupings – Easy (<0.30), Average (between 0.30 and 7.10), Difficult (>7.10).
The Fat % and Protein % are estimates of a sire’s ability to transmit milk components. In a grass-based system the daughter of a bull that transmits a 5.0% fat test, and a cow with 4.0% fat could be expected to test 4.5%.
There are two common variant forms, an A variant and a B variant. Cows produce milk that can contain two sets of the same variant (AA or BB) or a mixture of both variants (AB). BB is more desirable for cheese-making and AA for milk powder manufacture.
Percentage New Zealand Genetics
Short Gestation Length (SGL)
Percentage New Zealand Genetics indicates the degree of New Zealand blood in each sire’s ancestry. To be classified KiwiFriesian a Holstein-Friesian sire must have more than 50% KiwiFriesian blood.
This trait is a breeding value to evaluate shorter gestation length to tighten calving patterns when used towards the end of the herd’s mating period. On average we would expect to shorten the gestation by three days using a bull with a SGL BV of –6.
New Zealand Fat and Protein %
Beta Casein (A2) Beta casein comes in many different variant forms, the most common being A, B, A1 and A2. Cows produce milk that can contain two sets of the same variant (AA, A1A1, A2A2) or a mixture (A1A2). A2A2 is more desirable. LIC does not endorse any claims related to A2 milk. However, milk containing only the A2 protein is selling in USA, New Zealand and Australian markets at a premium over standard milk.
Beta Lactoglobulin Beta Lactoglobulin is a whey protein. There are two common variant forms, an A variant and a B variant. Cows produce milk that can contain two sets of the same variant (AA or BB) or a mixture of both variants (AB). BB is more desirable, especially for cheese-making and milk powder manufacture. The A and B variants of Beta Lactoglobulin behave differently when heated. When heated the B variant causes little fouling of the milk heat treatment plant, whereas the A variant causes higher fouling.
Kappa Casein Kappa Casein is a curd protein. Kappa Casein is important in the stability for the aggregation of certain molecules in the milk. If absent, certain molecules will clump together, like in curd formation during cheese manufacture. Kappa Casein reacts with Beta Lactoglobulin when milk is heated and influences the properties of products such as milk powders.
Once a Day (OAD) The OAD BV evaluates the tendency of a bull’s progeny to be more efficient in a once a day farming system. The biggest factor in making OAD successful is milking the right cows. A higher OAD Index is more desirable. As a rule, Jerseys are more efficient in a OAD system.
Somatic Cell Count (SCC) Somatic Cell BV indicates a bull’s tendency to breed daughters that are susceptible to lower or higher somatic cell counts. A score of 0.5 equates to approx 35,000 extra SCC transmitted to daughters. A negative SCC score is more desirable.
High Input High input farmers are not just interested in BW. They want animals producing high milksolids, and with good type (especially udder support) to carry the extra milk volume. The High Input index uses information and economic weights appropriate for the average high input system (in New Zealand). High Input index considers all seven traits in Breeding worth (weighted differently) plus udder overall. Generally, the High Input index places slightly more emphasis on the somatic cell score, and weights almost one-tenth of the index on the udder.
