Bull Directory '2020



Message from Chairman’s Desk:
Lal Teer Livestock Development Limited (LTLD) is the first Bangladeshi Research  and Development (R & D) based "Livestock breeding company" in the private sector. The company was established in 2010 at Bhaluka, Mymensingh. From the very inception LTLD has been working for the  improvement of Buffalo and Cattle breed throughout the country. Our R&D includes genetic farm (breeding farm), bull stations, fodder bank and modern semen processing laboratory, as well as improvement of feed, animal health and management technique for smallholder animal farmers. The Bull Station is fully equipped with live bull management and semen production and distribution of frozen semen of dairy, beef cattle and buffaloes.
Lal Teer Livestock Development Limited  is a registered (Reg. no. 02) company for semen collection, processing and marketing by the regulatory authority of Bangladesh Government, Department of Livestock Services (DLS), Ministry of Fisheries and Livestock.
Water Buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) is one of the most important animal resources for milk and meat production in South Asia and South East Asia. Unfortunately, no visible effort has been made to improve the buffalo breeds for increasing the meat and milk productivity suitable to climate of Bangladesh. In India (70%) and Pakistan (68%), the lion share of their milk production comes from buffalo. Bangladesh is lagging far behind on this. Keeping this in mind, LTLD has been working diligently to bring such an important resource (buffalo) in the mainstream of milk and meat production. India had exported more than US$ 8.0 Billion worth of Buffalo meat in 2018.
The research activities of LTLD include an all out research on genetics characterization of buffalo breed type available in Bangladesh. For the very first time a private sector enterprise had undertaken such scientific activities to improve the livestock breed.
Our Genomic Research includes sequencing, bioinformatics analysis to identify the clear concept on Gene Expression mechanism and Gene Expression regulation factors. This knowledge can make clear the gene expression pathway of any particular gene and possible way of interruption. This knowledge may be useful on more productivity increase. As part of our genomic research to improve the productivity of the local buffalo, we finish the decoding of water buffalo genome under whole genome sequencing project in collaboration with BGI, China with the approval of Department of Livestock Services (DLS). We hope this decoding of buffalo genome will be proven to be a milestone for improving the productivity with follow up research. In relation to this a research article has been published in the volume 9, issue 6 of world famous international journal "Ecology and Evaluation" and in the Wiley Online Library on April 2019 edition, where you will find our valued publication on Buffalo genome sequencing
Lal Teer Livestock Development Limited (LTLD) is currently engaged in development, production, processing, storage, packaging, marketing and distribution of all kinds of frozen semen (Cattle & Buffalo) in line with the development program of the Government of Bangladesh. The company has thus established itself as a really integrated breeding company in the country.  The LTLD scientist’s team is continually engaged in R & D work to improve Cattle & Buffalo breed adopted in the sub-tropical climate of the country. The company believe that the LTLD’s improved breed for milk and beef will  reach to the door step of Small Farmers of urban & rural area of Bangladesh, which has been a great service to fueling in improving their financial outcome and livelihood improvement. On the other hand, this is certainly a complement to the overall economy of the country and for food and nutrition security of Bangladesh.

Message from Director Desk:
The Lal Teer Livestock Development (BD) Limited (LTL) is a leading company providing genetically superior livestock breeds and technical support for genetic improvement potential to the farmers’ network. It belonging to the Multimode Group of companies started functioning since the end of 2010. Its core agricultural sister concern is the Lal Teer Seed Limited (LTSL), which is an international standard Bangladeshi seed company having all requisites of a modern seed company with distribution channel throughout the country and abroad.
Lal Teer Livestock Development Limited (LTLD) is a Registered (Reg. no. 02) company for semen collection, processing and marketing by the regulatory authority of Bangladesh Government, Department of Livestock Services (DLS), Ministry of Fisheries and Livestock.
Vision
We want to build a relationship with our livestock farmers to work collectively with a vision to way out a breeding strategy to promote and sustain the growth in the dairy industry. We have a target to grow as a multi-species food animal genetic improvement that is an integral and indispensable part of our customers’ business for food security through milk and meat, which could guide us to establish our high merit animal stock.
Mission
 Our mission is to be the leading countrywide supplier of high grade genetic to  improve  dairy industry to develop chain relation with customers through innovative and outstanding services, technology, nutrition & health and management improvement.
 Objectives
The main purpose of the LTL is to genetic improvement of Dairy and Beef cattle and Buffalo business enterprise development in the country. The activities of the program are to increase quality semen production from locally produced environmentally acclimatized supported excellent bull, fresh and frozen embryos with superior genetic combination at desired blood levels for sustainable higher milk and meat industry and its distribution/marketing for Artificial Insemination for increasing milk and meat to cater future growing dairy industry throughout Bangladesh.
The program is integrated with sex semen and embryo production and marketing, cattle feed production, cattle and buffalo fattening for meat, quality heifer production for starting dairy farm, bio gas, organic fertilizer, milk value chain and milk products marketing and meat processing. All these programs are based on Nucleus Breeding Farm and community based livestock farmers locally stationed called as Livestock Growth Center.
Innovative Aspects:
To  meet  the  growing  demand  for  milk and milk  products  and  meat,  the  livestock  farmers  in Bangladesh  require  improved  breeds  of  cattle  and  buffalo  with  a  higher  productivity potential. In addition the cattle and buffalo farmers need to have improved feed and better access to animal health services in order to realize the production potential of the improved cattle and buffalo breeds.
Approaches:
a)       Promote genetic improvement of Dairy cattle, Dairy buffalo and Beef cattle and Goat enterprises in the country,
b)       Proven/tested Bull Production
c)       High merited semen sales under linked  farmers through contract farming to the Dairy & Buffalo farmers network,
d)       Quality  Dairy , Beef and Dairy Buffalo semen production that adapted local environment,
e)       Self Employed LSP,  AI Technician training facilitation to enhance the tool of Genetic Improvement of Dairy & Beef,
