Dairy Women's Network has signed two new partners.

LIC says its full-year results reflect the resilience of farmers and their commitment to herd improvement.

Short gestation dairy genetics is expected to generate more than $11 million in extra milk production for New Zealand farmers this spring, says livestock breeder LIC.

Two of LIC's artificial breeding bulls were named sires of the season by Jersey and Holstein-Friesian breed societies at their annual conferences last month.

LIC is joining forces with Precision Farming Ltd, supplier of GIS-based systems that manage the application of farm nutrients to optimise pasture growth including fertiliser and effluent.

LIC has launched a new app, which will help farmers keep their cows’ health in-check from a mobile device.

Helping farmers raise productivity and prosperity will be the focus of LIC’s two sites.

Despite great cow and pasture condition in spring, Lincoln University dairy farm’s six-week in-calf rate slumped from 78% last year to 72% this year.

LIC has opened a new $5 million herd testing facility in Hamilton.

Farmer co-op LIC will hold meetings nationally next month to brief shareholders on its ambitious growth strategy.
