Always a great evening celebrating the best in the industry and then there are a few roughies from the beef section

We are honoured to be entering our 14th season of supplying LIC exclusively, with our SGL Hereford genetics and heading towards 3 million inseminations within the global dairy industry. 🙌

Using beef genetics this mating season?

Connected Mating Decisions gives you another opportunity to check your breeding plan at the point of insemination.

If a dairy straw is about to be used on a cow within your selected lower BW percentage, your AB technician will receive a Beef Flag and can check with you before insemination.

You can stick with your planned mating or make a different decision – the choice remains yours.

Talk to your LIC Agri Manager to find out more about Connected Mating Decisions.
