ECHAGUE, Isabela — Through embryo transfer technology, the country can harness the economic and nutritional benefits of a robust goat industry.
This was the message of Science and Technology Secretary Renato Solidum Jr. when he spoke before the media and stakeholders at the Isabela State University on September 26 here.Solidum said the goat industry is a good business opportunity for local entrepreneurs because it requires little maintenance and low investment costs.'Through embryo transfer, our local goat industry has the opportunity to improve the health and productive performance of local animals,' he said.
At least 100 percent of the transferred embryos from the donor survived, and the kids had matured.Embryo transfer using fresh embryos is also being tried now, but they are not yet skilled in preserving the extracted embryos.This will be the focus of the proposed secondary engagement of the Balik Scientist with the training of other veterinarians in the region in the on-farm application of ET.
