Abstract

Over the years, reproductive efficiency in the swine industry has focused on reducing the sperm cell number required per sow. Recent advances have included the identification of subfertile boars, new studies in extended semen quality control, new catheters and cannulas for intrauterine artificial insemination (AI), and fixed-time AI under commercial use. Therefore, it is essential to link field demands with scientific studies. In this review, we intend to discuss the current status of porcine AI, pointing out challenges and opportunities to improve reproductive efficiency.
