The livestock use of buffaloes is characterized by the good reproductive efficiency and fast body weight gain, and this genetic potential can be multiplied faster by reproductive biotechniques, Buffalo’s national and international business markets requires superior genetically animals. Therefore, due to the importance of buffalo breeding for the country, the aim of this review is to describe some aspects of reproductive physiology and the use of reproductive biotechniques in this species, to promote improvements to the genetic selection and performance of these animals.
