ARTIFICIAL BREEDING

Frozen Semen Now

Available To Farmers

Frozen semen for artificial breeding

of cattle is now available to Georgia dairy-
men on a regular basis through the Amer-
ican Breeders Service.





John McGowan, dairyman for the Ag- __ -

ricultural Extension Service, University

of Georgia College of Agriculture, said ise

that the first Georgia delivery of frozen

_semen was made at Thomasville, Nov. 1;

Douglas, Perry and Griffin, Nov. 3; At-
Janta, Hub Junction, Union Point, War-
renton and Augusta Nov. 4.

__. MeGowan said that the delivery truck i
will be on a very tight schedule and de-

BN teats

lay at any stop cannot be permitted. He

said that deliveries will be made on the

same day of the week at the same time of ui

day, every two weeks.
_ The extension dairyman said that the
availability of the frozen semen will of-

fer a number of advantages to Georgia |

dairymen which could not be offered by
technicians using liquid semen.

Frozen semen can be held indefinite-
ly without any deterioration, McGowan
said, and it gives a four to 15 percent high-
er conception rate. With frozen semen,
technicians can offer a greater choice of
bulls of a given breed and also semen of
more breeds will be available. A further
advantage is that there is no waste in the
use of frozen semen.

Neil Manley, field man of American
Breeders Service, said that frozen semen
will replace liquid semen in Georgia and
should make artificial breeding much
more desirable to Georgia dairymen
through an improved conception rate and
through use of greater proved sires than
have been available in the past.

Manley pointed out that frozen semen
is maintained without deterioration by

storage in liquid nitrogen which holds the

semen at minus 360 degrees Fahrenheit.
For example, cows are still being
settled by semen from a bull, Cottonade
Emmet, which died in November 1953,
Manley declared.
Manley said that as of July 1, more
than 500 technicians in some 15 states

How can a marketing agreement be end-

A. It can be voted out by 51 percent

During seasons when the committee de-
