Man-made methods of vegetative reproduction are usually enhancements of natural processes, but range from simple cloning such as rooting of cuttings to grafting and artificial propagation by laboratory tissue cloning. It is very commonly practised to propagate cultivars with individual desirable characteristics. Fruit tree propagation is frequently performed by budding or grafting desirable cultivars (clones), onto rootstocks that are also clones, propagated by layering.
In horticulture, a "cutting" is a branch that has been cut off from a mother plant below an inter node and then rooted, often with the help of a rooting liquid or powder containing hormones. When a full root has formed and leaves begin to sprout anew, the clone is a self-sufficient plant, genetically identical to the mother plant. Examples are cutting from the stems of blackberries (Rubus occidentalis), cutting from leaves of African violets (Saintpaulia), and cutting the stems of verbenas (Verbena) to create new plants. A related form of regeneration is that of grafting. This is a process of taking a bud and grafting onto a plants stem. Many nurseries now sell trees that can produce four or more varieties of apples (Malus spp.) from stems grafted to a common rootstock.
cloning and artificial insemination/artificial breeding are all i can think of atm.

A method could only be called artificial if a plant is created in a process which is not simple natural reproduction. No current technology is capable of this, and as such, there are no artificial methods to propagate plants.
Examples of structures that are part of asexual reproduction in some plants are rhizomes and bulbs. Asexual reproduction results in offspring that are similar genetically to the parent.

Animals in the wild breeding, such as squirrels, rabbits, deer, elephants, etc., are not selective breeding (artificial selection).

Cutting plants' stems and placing them in compost is also a form of artificial reproduction.

rtificial propagation (def.): Reproduction of biological tissues via human intervention, usually under carefully controlled environmental conditions, but in the absence of the usual (generally sexual) modes of reproduction. Vegetative reproduction can be performed artificially, a common practice among horticulturists, but much vegetative reproduction occurs naturally without human involvement. Furthermore, artificial propagation can be achieved among both animal and plant species, whereas vegetative reproduction only occurs in plants. Artificial propagation is commonly used to increase the populations of endangered species, often via artificial insemination.

If you will take a cutting of a house plant or garden plant you like and get it to grow, you will have vegetative reproduction. Both plants are exactly the same and have exactly the same genes. No sexual reproduction was involved. Sexual reproduction produces an individual that is genetically different from all others.If you will take a cutting of a house plant or garden plant you like and get it to grow, you will have vegetative reproduction.

It is similar to other organisms. Plants using reproduction. So they can make new plants.By regeneration and sexual reproduction
