The University of Wyoming Extension is hosting a beef artificial insemination (AI) school Tuesday-Thursday, April 2-4, at the Laramie Research and Extension Center near Laramie.

The class is limited to 15 participants. Cost is $100 and must be paid prior to attending.

“AI can potentially be a beneficial practice for large- and small-scale operations,” said Brian Sebade, University of Wyoming Extension educator.

Topics include:

• AI process and palpation,
• Heifer development and nutrition,
• Equipment and semen handling,
• Sync protocols, and
• Reproduction anatomy.

Participants gain skills by working with live cattle every day at the class, said Sebade.

Sessions are 9 a.m.-4 p.m. each day. Lunch is provided the final day.
