Abstract
The present paper has proposed to analyze the economic results that lead to an economic efficiency assessment of artificial insemination service in a private production unit.
There were calculated technical indicators: total number of parturitions, fecundity index, artificial insemination/sow/year, pigs born alive/sow/year, pigs born alive/parturition, weaned pigs/parturition, weaned pigs/sow/year, and also the main economic indicators: cost/sow, cost/pregnancy, cost/weaned pig, cost/artificial insemination. The primary data were statistically remade and there were concluded the results.

Key words: artificial insemination, swine, reproduction indices
