Abstract
The primary factors affecting fertility in a program utilizing artificial insemination (A.I.) are number and quality of spermatozoa in the inseminate, timing and frequency of insemination, volume inseminated, seminal handling, seminal extenders, and cleanliness of procedures and equipment. The number of spermatozoa available for insemination depends upon age of the stallion, season of the year, testicular size, frequency of seminal collection and stallion sexual behavior. Other factors affecting fertility, in general, are inherent fertility of the animals, nutrition, disease, hormonal concentrations in the blood and overall management.
