Popis: In an intensive system such as modern pig farming, one of the main objectives of reproductive biotechniques is to allow genetic improvement. Besides this, it also allows to reduce the necessary labor requirements in the production system, optimizing the handling in a natural way. Thus, other goals can be achieved, like reducing costs with breeding or inseminating doses and also with materials needed in some processes during production. Finally, the objective is also to increase the productivity, but its maintenance becomes satisfactory since the other objectives, mainly in relation to the diffusion of genetic material and the reduction of costs, the use of these biotechniques becomes feasible according to your progress. Thus, the objective of this review was to address the main causes that may lead to failure to implement TFAI in reproductive programs, from an approach that considers terms related to the industrial sectors, in order to bring producers closer to reality of a increasingly professional and competitive production and creation system.
