title: [Embryo transfer in a Senegal village environment].
abstract: This study aims to identify the embryo transfer constraints and production costs at a village level in the district of Kolda (Senegal). Fifteen (15) donors cows were superovulated using 2500 UI PMSG (group A n = 8), 32 mg of FSH (group B n = 3) and 36 mg of FSH (group C n = 4). The average number of yellow bodies that were palpated was 5.06 and the mean rates of collected embryos were 5.66 for group A, 2.5 for group B and 3.3 for group C. The average transferable embryos were 2.33 for group A, 0 for group B and 1.4 for group C. The identified constraints are nutritional, healthy, social and logistic nature. The average cost of a produced and transferred embryo amount respectively to 75.940 F CFA and 99310 F CFA. Embryo transfer can fit in with a dairy production development plan in Senegal.
