Physiology and technology of reproduction in swine


The group has a long history of work in the Department of Animal Reproduction of INIA. Its projection in the swine sector has been developed through technology transfer related to reproduction and other fields related to this function (health, feeding and genetics). To achieve these goals, INIA has carried out many competitive projects, agreements and contracts with other institutions and companies at national and international level. It has participated in a multitude of training courses, especially those organized together with the AECI, in the development of 31 international courses (duration of 1 month), with a large participation of almost all Latin American countries. We have collaborated with the Ministry of Agriculture in the review of pre-projects related to livestock. We also participate in committees of experts in interprofessionals as INTERPORC, ASICI, as well as ANPS livestock groups.
