In the 1980s, Australian researchers developed a laparoscopic insemination procedure which, combined with the use of progestogen and a pregnant mare's serum gonadotropin , yielded much higher success rates (50-80% or more), and has become the standard for artificial insemination of sheep in the 21st century.
