Short Gestation Length (SGL) beef sires that deliver more days in milk, together with fertility benefits (compared to many other beef breeds). SGL Hereford is LIC’s top beef breed, offering distinctive white-faced calves, which are both easy to identify and sought after in saleyards. A high proportion of SGL Hereford sires are homozygous polled. LIC sources genetics from Shrimpton’s Hill Herefords, Australasia’s leading SGL Hereford stud which is known for breeding traits ideal for the dairy industry. Available in liquid or frozen semen options to suit different farming systems.
