Loncomilla Dairy Farms began breeding cattle in 1975, when it bought 46 first-birth cows in southern Chile. From the first day on, it incorporated artificial insemination to improve the genetic stock using imported semen of the Holstein Frisian breed. In August 1977, it incorporated computer milk controls with the company DHI in Provo, Utah in the United States, making it the first in the country to incorporate that remarkable improvement and management tool.
Thirty-five years later, in 2010, finally abandoned Loncomilla dairy milk production to focus exclusively on the manufacture and distribution of its flagship product, the famous ice cream and frozen desserts light and water, and cheese. And much of their genetic improvement of more than 35 years, went to the vendors who currently supply the plant, which retained most of the cows genetically optimized and thus not lost the selection work started in 1974.
