Corporate Sponsorship
Through delivering genetic gain, herd testing, and management information, LIC operates (alongside farmers) at the heart of New Zealand’s dairy industry.
Our products result in productivity and profitability gains that are cumulative, year-on-year. Like our farming shareholders, we pride ourselves the positive contribution we make to our country’s economic performance.
But we realise our responsibilities as a farmer-owned co-operative go well beyond the farm gate.
We have a philosophy of giving something back to the industry and the wider community because – quite frankly – it’s just decent business practice.
So whether we’re awarding purple ribbons at a local calf club day or whether we’re supporting the New Zealand Dairy Industry Awards, LIC is doing so because it wants to do justice to our shareholding farmers – while also promoting excellence in the dairy industry.
Rest assured, our sponsorship funds are hotly contested. To qualify, events or activities must align well with both our corporate and farmer-owned co-operative values.

SIDDC is a partnership of six key New Zealand organisations involved in South Island dairying.
Established in September 2001, the venture is a partnership between Lincoln University, DairyNZ, South Island Dairy Farmers (represented by the South Island Dairy Event (SIDE) network), Ravensdown Fertiliser Cooperative Limited, Crop & Food Research and Livestock Improvement.
SIDDC’s focus is to accelerate the development of South Island dairying for all parties, especially South Island Dairy farmers. The South Island Dairying Development Centre [SIDDC] provides a cluster of expertise, resources, and services delivering innovative, practical research, technical, education, extension and training support to dairy farmers. Our involvement in SIDDC will lead to better development of new technologies that will assist farmers in their operations and help promote dairying as an industry and a career of choice.
