The UVM Morgan Horse Farm hosted another fantastic Equine Reproduction Workshop on April 5 and 6, 2024. They had a great turnout of students and participants from the equine community.
The teaching agenda included lectures on mare and stallion physiology, breeding program management, foaling and neonates, hereditary disorders, artificial insemination, industry opportunities, and how to make mating decisions based on breeding ethics and philosophy.
The hands-on practical sessions at the UVM Morgan Horse Farm included observing mare ultrasounding, practicing insemination and review or reproduction tract, tour of the foaling station, stallion teasing and collection, building an AV, and semen evaluation and processing.
