A technique in which sperm is manually inserted into a female's reproductive tract.
This technology, developed mid-20th century, was historically controlled and promoted by male scientists and veterinarians. Reproductive technologies affecting female animals carry gendered labor dynamics: women farm workers typically perform insemination but male researchers receive primary attribution.
Use precise technical language (e.g., 'assisted reproductive technique', 'controlled breeding protocol') to center the biological process and avoid gendered associations. Credit all practitioners regardless of gender when discussing innovation.

Women veterinarians and farm technicians pioneered practical application of insemination; acknowledge their labor in reproductive livestock management histories.
