on the insemination of livestock
The Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Management provides in agreement with the participating central authorities pursuant to Section 1 of Act No. 80 / 1948 Coll., which empowers the Minister of Agriculture to take action in agricultural production and under Section 19 of Act No. 187 / 1950 Coll., to improve livestock production:
General provisions
Purpose of insemination
(1) The insemination of livestock breeding animals enables the effective use of breeders of high breeding value, the acquisition of the most numerous quality offspring, as well as the successful fight for the recovery of livestock farming; This helps to improve livestock farming, in particular to improve their performance.
(2) According to this decree, livestock, pigs, horses, sheep, goats and poultry are to be understood as livestock.
Implementation of insemination
(1) Insemination may only be carried out by staff competent to carry it out (§ 3) - hereinafter referred to as "insemination technicians":
(a) district breeding authorities;
(b) socialist agricultural establishments authorised to do so; the authorisation is granted by the district breeding service with the agreement of the district national committee.
(2) Regional breeding authorities shall assist in all-round implementation of the insemination of socialist agricultural establishments authorised under paragraph 1 and shall, as a general rule, provide semen to carry out the insemination. They shall regularly monitor its implementation and take care of the timely removal of detected defects.
(3) The insemination of mare animals may also be carried out by state institutes for horse breeding by their own semen collection techniques.
(4) Insemination may only be carried out by semen obtained from breeding animals for which an authorisation for insemination has been granted by the relevant selection panel and according to approved allocation plans.
Eligibility to perform insemination
(1) Insemination techniques may be personnel over the age of 18 who are authorised to carry out insemination by the State Breeding Authority or the Regional Breeding Authority. Authorisations may be issued only to workers who prove that they have completed theoretical and practical training in insemination of livestock and have successfully passed the prescribed test; Theoretical training replaces successful completion of a university in the field of zootechnics, if it is the subject of obstetrics and insemination.
(2) The right to carry out insemination may also be issued to officials of the district breeding service who have been successfully engaged on the insemination section for at least 5 years on the day of the effective date of this decree, even if they do not fulfil the condition laid down in paragraph 1, second sentence.
(3) In the context of insemination, insemination technicians may carry out simple treatment of breeding animals' sex organs as instructed by the veterinarian.
(4) Insemination technicians must not carry out insemination if they suffer from a communicable disease, in particular contagious tuberculosis or brucellosis; are required to undergo regular medical examinations. When working, they are required to use prescribed personal protective equipment to be fitted by insemination organisations.
(5) The authorisation to carry out insemination is also for veterinary doctors.
Implementation of the insemination of breeders' breeds by socialist farms
The county national committee, after consulting the district breeding authority, may determine which single agricultural cooperatives or national goods and from which time, in addition to the insemination of own breeding animals, may carry out the insemination of breeding animals of members of the single agricultural cooperatives and individual farmers.
Insemination of bovine breeding animals
Insemination of breeding animals
(1) The plan for the inclusion of breeding animals in the insemination is drawn up by the district breeding service; It shall be approved by the Regional National Committee. In the municipality where the insemination is to be introduced under this plan, the district breeders' administration shall make a double list of all breeding animals; one copy of the inventory shall be sent to the district veterinary establishment. On the basis of this inventory, the veterinarian shall conduct a health survey of breeding animals, in particular taking into account the diseases of their sex organs. The results of the health survey shall be notified immediately by the veterinarian to the district breeders' service at the same time as the health conditions for the introduction of insemination in the municipality are indicated. According to the veterinary surgeon, the district breeders' administration will propose to introduce an insemination in the municipality. The District National Committee shall decide on the proposal after consulting the Local National Committee. If it has been decided to introduce insemination in the municipality, the district breeders' administration shall include all bovine breeds in the insemination; Insemination may, as a general rule, be started at the beginning of the next quarter after the decision to introduce insemination.
(2) Natural breeding of bovine animals must not be carried out in the municipality where the insemination has been introduced. Where justified, derogations may be authorised by the district national committee after consultation with the district breeding service.
(3) The method of reporting the breed of bovine animals shall be determined by the local national committee after consultation with the county breeding authority and breeders in the municipality.
Conditions for carrying out insemination
(1) Breeders of bovine animals may be inseminated only by the semen of the bulls as defined in the apportionment plan.
(2) A mixture of semen of two or more breeding bulls may be used for insemination only with the approval of the District National Committee, the veterinarian and the relevant agricultural establishment, under the conditions laid down in the Directives (§ 13).
(3) Heifers are allowed to inseminate normally at the age of 18 to 22 months if they reach at least the following weight at the time of insemination:
| a) u skotu červenostrakatého, slovenského strakatého a plemen příbuzných | |
| těžšího typu | 370 kg, |
| lehčího typu | 350 kg, |
| b) u skotu pinzgavského | 340 kg. |
(4) It is not permissible to inseminate breeding animals with signs of STD or with symptoms of general health disorders. Exceptions may be authorised by the veterinarian.
(5) If the insemination technique has doubts about the health status of the breed, it shall not carry out the insemination and record it in the breed card; At the same time, he shall invite the breeder to have the animal examined by a veterinarian. The veterinarian shall record the findings of the examination of the breed, the details of the measures resulting from the finding, as well as the time when the breed may be inseminated, in the breed card.
(6) Breeders from breeding with brucellosis that have been destroyed or who have been evicted by a dead foetus, or where the bed has been detained, may be inseminated only with the consent of the veterinarian and according to his instructions, or only by the veterinarian.
Obligations of breeders
(1) The breeder shall:
(a) monitor for signs of breed rearing;
(b) report without delay in a manner determined by the local national committee (§ 5 (3));
(c) make sure that the insemination technique is protected from discomfort in the course of the insemination process, and provide it with sufficient amount of warm water, washing and disinfectant and the possibility of drying;

(h) enter the information on calving in the breed card or, where appropriate, in the insemination register.
(2) The provisions of paragraph 1 (c) to (e) shall apply mutatis mutandis if the veterinarian inseminates or examines pregnancy.
Registration
(1) Insemination technicians shall keep a basic record of insemination in the record of work in the insemination circuit; In particular, they shall record daily data on the carrying out of insemination, examination of pregnancy and other insemination operations, as well as on the calving of breeding animals. Data from the record of work in the semen collection centre shall be entered in the insemination log kept by the semen collection centre of the district breeding service.
(2) For each breed of bovine animals included in the insemination, the district breeders' administration shall issue the breed card to the breeder; This provision shall not apply where the breeder has a record of the insemination of bovine breeding animals. In particular, insemination technicians shall enter data on the insemination and pregnancy testing carried out on the breed card.
(3) Data on pregnant breeding animals are entered in the list of breeding animals pregnant after insemination, which is drawn up by the collection centre of the district breeding service.
