The global equine artificial insemination market size is estimated to reach USD 1,077.33 million by 2033, registering to grow at a CAGR of 5.94% from 2025 to 2033, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is being driven by the emphasis on enhancing equines' genetic features, developments in breeding technology, an increase in the number of veterinarians, and an increase in the number of hospitals performing artificial insemination procedures. Employing artificial insemination increases the number of stallions available and reduces the risk of physical harm to the mare and stallion by permitting the utilization of semen from horses that aren’t available, such as competing sports horse stallions or stallions from abroad.
The COVID-19 pandemic restricted access to artificial insemination solutions including equipment, sperm, and services. As a result, the growth of the market was slowed and sales dropped as well. Due to the owner’s demand for doorstep delivery of artificial insemination services, the market steadily recovered. The number of stallions visiting Stallion AI services in 2020 increased. Furthermore, breeders had a lot more options because stallions who normally battle were not at shows and were available for breeding. Additionally, a lot of stallion owners opted for freezing seminal fluid in 2020.
By law, the Japan Racing Association (JRA), a public company established by the national government, and local government agencies must conduct all authorized racing in Japan. Moreover, according to Japan Association for International Racing and Stud Book, 785 farms have thoroughbred broodmares stabled as of 2021. The majority of these live in Hokkaido's Hidaka region. 251 thoroughbred stallions were registered as studs in Japan in 2021. There were 61 foreign-bred horses and 190 Japanese-bred horses. These stallions make up roughly 92% of those standing in the primary Hokkaido breeding area.
