Data available since 1981 were compiled and analyzed to determine the extent of DTRI's Cattle Breeding Extension Service being performed by the Breeding and Physiology Section. For the past 11 years (1981-1992), a total of 870 artificial insemination (AI) were performed, an average of 7 AI services per month off-campus. At present, the service fee is Php 6.00 per insemination and that this is very cheap in contrast to the natural mating fee of Php 250-Php 300. Although almost half of the total services in Los Banos [Laguna, Philippines] are (46%) calls were heeded to distant areas such as Tiaong, Quezon and Kalayaan, Laguna. Other principal areas serviced were Bay (18.3%), Calauan (13%), Calamba (9.2%), San Pablo (4.8%) and Pila (3.2%). The following recommendations were made: 1) increase mobility of AI technicians by purchase of motorcycles, 2) increase information dissemination through the development and production of leaflets, pamphlets on the beenfits of AI; and 3) initiate training/short courses on farmer level
