Summary: Abstract: High reproductive efficiency is essential to guarantee sustainable livestock production and a satisfactory economic return for the meat producer. Reproductive biotechnologies and animal breeding play an important role in the livestock economy. These two factors have a long- established relationship between reproductive performance and profitability; consequently, improving reproductive and genetic efficiency will increase profitability. In Brazil, the beef livestock farming is practiced in all states and ecosystems in the country. Regardless of the production system, it is characterized by the predominance of the use of pastures. So beef cattle production systems are very different, with variable results. Advances in reproductive biotechnologies and genetic evaluation in different biomes have enabled the development of production systems with better performance in beef cattle systems.
