1.	Write a short note on Multiple Ovulation Embryo Transfer Technology.
Answer» Multiple Ovulation Embryo Transfer Technology (MOET) is a programme for herd improvement. Different steps in this method are : (i) A cow is administered hormone (like FSH) to induce follicular maturation and super-ovulation, i.e., 6-8 eggs in one cycle. (ii) The cow is either mated with the selected superior bull or artificially inseminated. (iii) The fertilised eggs at 8-32 cell stages are recovered non-surgically and transferred to surrogate mothers. (iv) Now, the genetic mother is available for another round of super-ovulation. (v) This technology has been used for cattle, sheep, rabbit, buffalo, mare etc. (vi) High milk-yielding breeds of females and high quality meat-lean meat, with little fat yielding bulls have been bred successfully to obtain better breed and increase the herd size in short time.
