    Assessment of Artificial Insemination Service among Small and Medium Scale Farmers in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
    (2024) Fentaye Anmaw
    The objective of the study was to assess artificial insemination services across the two scales of dairy operations, namely small- and medium-scale farms, in the three selected sub-cities of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The three sub-cities (Akaki Kality, Bole, and Yeka) were selected purposefully based on their high numbers of dairy cattle and milk potential, and six representative districts were selected (two districts per sub-city) based on the above-mentioned criteria. A total of 182 dairy farms (75 small and 107 medium-scale) were recruited and interviewed face-to-face using a semi-structured questionnaire. To explore further information, six focus group discussions and six key informant interviews were conducted. A total of 48 frozen semen samples were collected from the center and AI technicians to evaluate the quality of the semen. The data was analyzed using SPSS, version 20 software.
