Práctica empresarial en reproducción animal y aplicaciones de biotecnología reproductiva llevadas a cabo en la zona de Minas Gerais, en la Universidad Federal de Viçosa, Brasil..

Abstract

Reproductive biotechnologies are tools that allow us to improve parameters in production systems. This work studies various reproductive biotechnologies applied at the Federal University of Viçosa and in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. Featured procedures include semen collection, sperm training, follicular aspiration, pregnancy diagnosis, artificial insemination and embryo transfer. In addition, scientific articles were discussed as a basis for working on the different processes, and the productive and reproductive records of various farms were analyzed for decision making. Results of procedures such as embryo transfer, andrological examination, semen collection, morphological semen analysis and artificial insemination in cattle, goats and pigs are presented. In conclusion, the importance of reproductive biotechnologies is highlighted to improve animal reproduction and genetics, thus contributing to efficiency and productivity in the livestock industry.
