Abstract
Dairy farming makes a substantial contribution to both food security and
revenue generation, but because artificial insemination (AI) technology is not
widely used, genetic improvement is still restricted. The present state,
limitations, and potential of artificial insemination in Tanzania’s dairy industry
are examined in this review. The review combines national data, project reports,
and existing literature to assess the AI program’s success, identify important
limitations, and highlight potential avenues for long-term, sustainable genetic
advancement. For policymakers, researchers, and practitioners looking to
tackle the intricate problems presented by AI in Tanzania’s dairy production
industry, this paper offers insightful information by synthesizing previous studies
and identifying knowledge gaps. Good mitigation techniques are essential for
offering a workable route to boost AI adoption, accelerate genetic
improvement, and enhance the productivity and profitability of Tanzania’s
dairy sector.
