The IAEA is assisting RCA Member States to improve milk and meat production by small-scale livestock farmers through improved nutrition and reproductive management. Within this programme, radioimmunoassay (RIA) for measuring progesterone in milk is applied together with veterinary clinical investigations to improve the efficiency of artificial insemination (AI) services, diagnose non-pregnancy and infertility, and improve breeding management by farmers. Training of field veterinarians, AI technicians, extension workers and livestock farmers is an important feature of thisproject.
