Proven Pasture‑Based Genetics for Ecuadorian Farmers

The LIC International team is proud to bring our very best genetic offerings to Ecuadorian dairy farmers.

About us

LIC International, based at our New Zealand headquarters, works alongside trusted global partners such as Ecuador‑based InterGenetics to connect Ecuadorian dairy farmers with the best of New Zealand’s pasture‑based genetics. This partnership has been in place for more than a decade, reflecting a long‑term commitment to supporting Ecuador’s pasture‑focused dairy sector.

InterGenetics is supported by Pacific Basin Exports in New Zealand, which manages logistics and coordination to ensure LIC genetics are delivered reliably and efficiently into the Ecuadorian market. Together, this partnership provides dependable access to proven pasture‑based genetics for farmers seeking consistent performance and long‑term herd improvement.

Ecuador’s dairy industry is strongly influenced by pasture‑based production, particularly in higher‑altitude regions where grass and forage play a central role in milk production. In these systems, cows must combine fertility, feed efficiency, and robustness to perform consistently and support profitable, grass‑fed dairy farming.

Developed in environments where grass utilisation and efficiency are paramount, LIC genetics support Ecuadorian dairy farmers to build productive, resilient herds that thrive in pasture‑based systems.
