Learning
Outcomes
Goals
To give essential information to student about reproduction, artificial insemination
and andrology in farm animals.
Perpetuation of the Species :The strongest desire of an individual in any species is
to maintain itself. The strongest impulse in an individual is saving own life.
Reproduction is nature’s second strongest impulse, thus, the maintenance of the
species.
To provide food : Humans have learned to manage both domestic and wild species
so that surplus animals may be harvested to supply meat. Through selection, they

have developed the milk-producing capabilities of a few species, so that milk, too,
has become an important link in the human food chain. Reproduction is essential for
the maintenance and continuity of nature’s food chain as well.
Genetic improvement: The management and alterations of natural reproductive
processes have been utilized as genetic tools.
