The bulls featured within this 2012 catalogue have been selected on their ability to work well within all farming environments in the UK . The selection includes bulls which have good milk volume, good solids and type. Most importantly we have not lost focus on the importance of fertility and all round efficiency. BW (Breeding Worth) has also been taken into consideration as LIC believes it is an important tool when making breeding decisions anywhere in the world as it includes all efficiency traits. DNA Selected & Proven Bulls In this catalogue we have not separated our DNA Selected bulls from our daughter proven sires and we know that DNA Selected bulls are not a product for all farmers, however they are clearly marked.

Our aim is, in the long term, to sell you less semen per herd member. This will be achieved via the improved fertility your herd will achieve with use of LIC genetics. The impact of this is you will need less semen to get your cows in calf, allowing you to invest in increasing herd size, improving infrastructure or just better living.

FURTHER INFORMATION
I am proud to present the line-up of bulls which includes both Proven and 10 code DNA Selected bulls for this catalogue. The 2nd crop DNA bulls (08 Codes) now have a daughter proof and I am pleased to say these have tracked expectations. I know the combined offering will make a significant difference to your herd and the profitability of your farming business.
Robert Hassall General Manager - LIC UK
Who is
LIC? Where we go, others follow. That’s not a statement of arrogance, it’s one of fact.
LIC has pioneered so many things that, today, are taken for granted in the dairy industry in New Zealand and worldwide. We were there when the first herd tests were done, the first AI was done and the first animal recording was done. Over the years our name has been behind some of the biggest innovations in dairy science — the development of Long Last Liquid (fresh semen which would last up to four days in the field), Short Gestation bulls and trialing the use of Yaks to reduce gestation length and, most recently, a team of genomically selected bulls. We’ve been around for 100+ years and our vision hasn’t wavered. In contrast with others, we don’t exist to ‘just make a sale’; we exist to provide commercial dairy farmers with solutions which will boost their productivity and profitability. It’s as simple — and as complex - as that. Livestock Improvement at a glance : • A dairy farmer owned cooperative with annual sales of over NZD$150million • 550 Full Time staff around the world - this number burgeons to 1700 during the peak season • Our head office is located in Hamilton, New Zealand but we have offices in the United Kingdom, Ireland, United States and Australia with agents in South America and South Africa. • Annually invest around one-fifth of our revenue in product development and research and development.

FARMER SCORED MANAGEMENT TRAITS Sire Proving farmers score two-year-old heifers on the four farmer traits. The resulting BV is the expected genetic merit of an animal relative to a base of zero (2000 born cow). ADAPTABILITY TO MILKING – describes how soon the heifer settled into the milking routine after calving. SHED TEMPERAMENT – describes the temperament of the heifer in the farm dairy while being handled and milked. MILKING SPEED – describes the milking speed of the heifer. OVERALL OPLIION – describes the farmer’s overall acceptance of the heifer as a herd member.

If a sire has a Breeding Value close to 0, he is not expected to bring about much change in that trait when used over a group of average cows. However if the sire’s BV is markedly different from 0, he is expected to bring about noticeable changes when used over a group of average cows. Remember – a bull passes half of its genetic merit on average to immediate offspring.

BW/REL A Breeding Worth of $254 indicates that using this bull to breed a replacement is expected to generate $NZ254 more profit per 4.5t DM per year than using a bull with a BW of 0. Reliability measures the expected ability of an animal to generate progeny that are efficient converters of feed into profit. The more information included in the evaluation, the higher the reliability. ZA S3F

SOMATIC CELL – Sire Breeding Values for somatic cells in milk are reported in these SCC units. A useful approximation for farmers and advisors is to note that a difference between two sires of 0.5 in breeding value equates to a difference in expected daughter performance of 35,000 SCC (given the same management effects for all daughters).

ONCE A DAY (OAD) – The OAD BV or GV 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.

HIGH INPUT – High input farmers are not just interested in BW. They want animals producing high milk solids, 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.

BASE COW The estimated Breeding Values are expressed relative to a base of 0. The base of 0 (the centre line of the TOP graph) represents the average breeding value estimated for 2000-born base cows that had all their traits recorded in 2002.

SUSTAINABILITY IS A WORD THAT HAS BECOME VERY POPULAR RECENTLY, BUT SUSTAINABILITY HAS ALWAYS BEEN AT THE HEART OF GOOD DAIRYING. SUSTAINABILITY CAN ONLY BE BUILT ON A FOUNDATION OF FERTILITY. BREEDING A COW THAT IS FERTILE, LASTS MORE LACTATIONS, AND IS GENETICALLY SUPERIOR TO HER MOTHER IS THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF ANY BREEDING PLAN.
SUSTAINABILITY STARTS WITH FERTILITY Because the New Zealand dairy industry does not have the natural advantages that make wide-scale high-input farming economically feasible, the line between a productive and non-productive animal is much clearer than in many other systems.
CALVING INTERVAL (ICAR) 450 425 400 DAYS
This has led to the development (through years of selective culling) of a national herd containing cattle that are extremely fertile with a very short calving interval, higher longevity and greater number of lactations than animals in all other major dairying nations.

Canada Japan Argentina Scotland USA (estimated) England & Wales The Netherlands South Africa Northern Ireland Sweden Germany Chile Switzerland Ireland Norway NZ

It is these advantages that make LIC genetics so valuable in any dairy herd.
LONGEVITY IS THE KEY PERCENTAGE OF PEAK PRODUCTION BY COW AGE 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0%
Dairy cattle productivity peaks at the fourth and fifth lactations. If an animal does not remain in the herd until she is six years old, she will not achieve her optimum productivity. LIC genetics can help you increase the number of lactations your animals stay in the herd by improving fertility.

This in turn drives the overall lifetime productivity of each animal and reduces the number of replacements you need to breed each year.
PERCENTAGE OF REPLACEMENTS REQUIRED PER YEAR By reducing the number of replacements you must rear each year you can reduce the percentage of feed consumed by non-productive heifers, and increase the percentage of feed being used to generate milksolids.

NUMBER OF LACTATIONS
SUSTAINABLE PROFITABILITY Over the two years before a heifer is a productive member of your herd it will consume 2-3 tonnes of dry matter. This is feed that could otherwise be used to generate milk solids if fed to a productive cow.

By extending the longevity of your herd through the use of LIC bulls you can reduce the number of replacements you need to rear each year, therefore reducing the amount of feed being used to rear replacements.

By halving the amount of feed being used to rear replacements you are able to increase the proportion of your feed being used to generate revenue. This, combined with the productivity improvements made by cows reaching their peak productivity in years five and six will have a marked effect on your profitability.

LIC Farm Wizard
LIC Farm Wizard An easy-to-use, internet based record-keeping service. FarmWizard can save you time and increase profits by monitoring herd fertility while keeping you better informed of your herd’s performance. FarmWizard is different from existing Agri-IT software packages because farmers do not have to go to the trouble of buying, installing and maintaining Agri-IT software on their PCs. FarmWizard allows you to record and access information where and when you need it. Farmers can use a mobile phone or hand held computer (PDA) to record and access information. You can receive text alerts and request information on animals in your herd. Most events can be recorded on the farm without needing to access a computer.
