LICLIC IS ONE OF THE OLDEST FARMING CO-OPERATIVES IN NEW ZEALAND, WITH A PROUD HISTORY OF PROVIDING SOLUTIONS TO IMPROVE FARMER PROSPERITY SINCE 1909. Pioneering innovations that provides today’s farmers with their competitive edge on the world stage, including the systematic testing of milk quality, Long Last Liquid (fresh) semen, DNA technology to genomically identify elite sires, and more recently, short gestation bulls delivering offspring an average 10 days early.

LIC’s commitment to farmer prosperity and productivity continues, with genetics and information to create superior livestock; information to improve decision making to enable superior livestock; hardware and systems to improve productivity and decision

making; and LIC International – adding value for farmers worldwide. Strong investment into research and development also continues, to deliver on future farmer needs.

The co-op supplies three-quarters of the country’s Dairy bull semen, as well as information and automation systems, herd testing and diagnostics to drive efficiency and productivity gains on-farm. Subsidiary business, Dairy Automation Limited (DAL), also provide milk testing sensors that measure fat, protein, somatic cell counts and volume, and present real-time data while a cow is being milked.

ACROSS ALL BREED EVALUATIONTHE NEW ZEALAND BULL DATA IN THIS CATALOGUES IS DISPLAYED ACROSS ALL BREEDS, NOT DEVIATED WITHIN BREED AS PREVIOUS CATALOGUES WERE. Many LIC customers now select genetics from multiple breeds for their breeding programme.

The offspring are then treated the same from birth through to culling. It is therefore important for the farmer to understand how the animal should perform within their herd. Not just within the breed of their herd. Therefore, LIC believes that an across breed evaluation is now the best

tool to help you make breeding choices geared toward making your herd the most profitable it can be.

What you will now observe is Jersey BVs for Milk volume, liveweight and stature will now appear lower, while fertility % will have increased. The opposite will apply for Holstein Friesians.

See page 4 for more details.

Milk VolumeNZAEL Breeding Values (BV) are normally calculated across all breeds. Therefore Black & Whites have higher Milk Volume BVs than Jerseys. A BV of 741 litres indicates the bull will produce daughters that are genetically superior than the average Black and White by 370 litres of milk.

Somatic Cell CountA useful approximation for farmers to note, is that a difference between two sires of 0.5 in breeding value equates to a difference in expected daughter performance of 35’000 bulk milk count. The lower the SCC BV the better as you want to reduce the bulk milk.

Fat and ProteinA BV of 34 kg indicates that the bull will produce daughters which on average, are genetically superior to the base cow by 17 kg per 4.5t DM consumed.

TOPs

Assessing the animalEach trait is scored separately on a scale from 1-9. The traits included in the TOP system are the traits considered most Important In dairy cattle and contain 4 farmer scored traits, and 13 conformation traits.

Data processingThe raw data is then sent through to the New Zealand Animal Evaluation unit where within herd, region and national comparisons are analysed and processed. This information is then fed into the national data base as breeding values for sires.The average raw TOP scores of the 2000 base cow are as follows.

Across all breed evaluation

The New Zealand bull data in this catalogues is displayed across all breeds, not deviated within breed as previous catalogues were. This is in line with how data is displayed in New Zealand by NZAEL and LIC. Many LIC customers here in the United Kingdom and around the world, now select genetics from multiple breeds for their breeding programme. The offspring are then treated the same from birth through to culling. It is therefore important for the farmer to understand how the animal should perform within their herd. Not just within the breed of their herd. Therefore, LIC believes that an across breed evaluation is now the best tool to help you make breeding choices geared toward making your herd the most profi table it can be.What you will now observe is Jersey BVs for Milk volume, liveweight and stature will now appear lower, while fertility % will have increased. The opposite will apply for Holstein Friesians.

Base Cow

All of the bull information in this catalogue is expressed relative to the base group, who’s production and TOP information has been set to zero.The current genetic base used for calculating Breeding Worth (BW) and breeding values is the average of all 38,684 qualifying cows born in the year 2000. They each had to be weighed, TOP inspected and herd tested at least four times.

BW/RelUsing this bull at a BW of $240 indicates that per 4.5t DM the replacements are expected to generate NZD $232 more Nett profi t than using a sire with a BW of 0.

The reliability of a sire is a measure of the amount of information behind the bulls BW. The higher the reliability the less movement expected with his BW.

StatureAgain as the BV for a sire is comparing his progeny against the base cow which is across breed. Stature for Jerseys is usually negative and Holsteins are positive.

FertilityA BV of 4.8% indicates that 2.4% more daughters are expected to calve in the fi rst 42 days of a herds calving period, compared to a bull of 0.

New Zealand has been able to achieve the tightest calving interval worldwide. Highly fertile cows have been necessary to achieve this. It is generally accepted that the New Zealand base cow is far more fertile than any other countries base.

Calving Diffi cultyA sires Calving Diffi culty Breeding Value (BV) compares the percentage of assisted calvings expected when he is mated to yearling heifers, compared to a bull of 0.

LiveweightA BV of 42 kg indicates by using this sire over the average cow in New Zealand his daughters are expected to have a mature liveweight 21 kg lighter than the base cow of 500 kg.

LongevityA BV of 304 days indicates the bull’s daughters are expected to last in the herd for 152 days longer, compared to a bull of 0 days. The average Number of New Zealand lactations is now 5.5.

Te Poi is a genomically selected Mint-Edition son that is looking to be

every bit as good as his father. Daughters are expected to have strong

well attached udders. With a calving diffi culty of 0.5%, Te Poi is ideal for

using over yearlings.

Typhoon’s sire, Tommo, has come out looking very good. We are expecting

Typhoon’s daughters to follow suit.

KAMAR HEATMOUNT HEAT DETECTORS

ESTRUS ALERT

50 and 100 packsKamar heat detectors include a pressure sensitive device that helps prevent false readings. Glued onto the rear of a cow, the Kamar has a time sensitive release to ensure that the cow is mounted for three seconds before changing colour.

Roll of 50 stripsEstrus Alert strips are easy to apply and highly visible. The strip works on a friction base that prevents false positive readings.

Effective heat detection in cows leads to increased profi tability. The quicker the cow gets back

in-calf, the more milk she will product for your farm. Heat detection can be diffi cult and the

products below can help signifi cantly in choosing the best time to inseminate a cow.
