Abstract

    Artificial insemination (AI) is an important method in assisted reproduction. It is appropriate for the genetic dispersion and increase the superior genotypes quickly. Previously it was thought that AI in small ruminants was impractical, due to the difficulty in controlling their estral cycle (CE) and the inability to freeze semen. However, today both procedures are possible. In Venezuela, the development of these farms has not been achieved, which is why it is considered necessary to implement AI programs.
