The Fast Forward Team is a team of LIC’s elite young bulls selected using advanced genomic technology so you can breed better cows, faster.
The team delivers top genomic sires, while leaving room in the mating programme for daughter-proven sires. This approach simplifies mating decisions and enhances genetic diversity in the herd.
LIC’s Livestock Selection specialists select the Fast Forward Team based on key traits such as production, fertility, health traits and conformation. The result is an exceptional group of young bulls whose breeding values rival those of many top daughter-proven sires.
