Abstract
Low fertility is one of the most common and most costly problems in turkey breeder flocks. As a partial solution to this problem, there has been a growing interest in artificial insemination of turkeys. Artificial insemination is a practical solution to infertility due to inactive toms, Inefficient toms and nonreceptive hens, but is not a solution to infertility due to poor management.
