Proven Performance in a Competitive Dairy Market

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

About us

LIC International, based at our New Zealand headquarters, works closely with global partners such as ABS Global in the United States to connect U.S. dairy farmers with the best of New Zealand’s pasture‑based genetics. This partnership, established in 2017, aligns a shared strategic focus on delivering elite genetics specifically developed for grazing and grass‑fed dairy systems.

As a market leader in the U.S., ABS Global is supported by a strong nationwide distribution network that effectively manages the logistical demands of delivering genetics to farms efficiently and reliably. As a trusted and well‑recognised brand, ABS Global has played a key role in elevating LIC genetics within a highly competitive market—ensuring pasture‑based dairy farmers across the United States have dependable access to high‑quality New Zealand genetics.

The United States dairy industry is diverse and highly competitive, with producers operating across a wide range of systems and environments. Within pasture‑based and grass‑fed herds, success depends on fertility, feed efficiency, resilience, and cows that perform consistently over time—traits that support profitability in systems where efficiency and reliability matter most.

Developed in pasture‑driven environments, LIC genetics offer U.S. dairy farmers a proven option for building fertile, efficient, and durable herds that perform in grass‑based systems and support long‑term farm profitability.
