Infos

Written for students and all with a general interest in breeding
horses, this book sets out to provide a basic understanding with
sufficient practical information for beginners to get
started.

Enough reproductive physiology of the mare and stallion is
included to clarify the management techniques which are explained
later in the book, but unnecessary details are avoided. Artificial
insemination and embryo transfer are also explained, as are
selecting the broodmare and stallion, management at covering and
during pregnancy, and post-partum care of the mare and foal.
