Abstract

 The article contains materials, artificial insemination, as one of the types of assisted repro
ductive technologies, has widespread use in dairy and beef cattle breeding. The same cannot be said about
such a promising area of the agricultural sector as goat breeding. One of the limiting factors is the negative
effect of low temperatures on the morphofunctional characteristics of the sperm cells of breeding goats. The
problem of accelerated reproduction of highly productive animals is gaining special priority, using modern
methods of reproduction biotechnology in practice, including obtaining and cryopreservation of seed from
producers and its use in artificial insemination of the breeding females. The introduction of artificial insemina
tion into the practice of farms and private farms will make it possible to widely use the seed of highly valuable
breeding producers, tested for the quality of offspring, reduce the spread of sexually transmitted infectious
diseases, control the timing of insemination, ensuring the birth of young animals in a favorable season. When
goat ejaculates were frozen and thawed in a new diluent with vitamin E, compared with other analogues, the
following results were obtained: sperm motility was 8 points, sperm concentration was 1.7±1.8 bn/ml; the mo
bility of thawed sperm is 5 points, the absolute survivability index is 93 %. The use of a classical medium with
the addition of vitamin E will increase the efficiency of using the gene pool of highly valuable breeding goats.
