This will depend on what bull are going to use for the insemination, usually dairy bulls are more than beef bulls and the cost for older or very good bulls will be more for the younger bulls.
However, the average bull is about 40 dollars per tube. It will be about 50 dollars for a breeder to come to your farm and breed your animals. Keep in mind that the price for breeders can vary between each company, however, the price is usually decreased if you have a large herd that they will be breeding.
Artificial Insemination is cheaper than feeding a bull all year round, it is alot safer as well, especially for diary operations.

Can you artifically inseminate a barren cow to produce?
Yes you can.
How do you get a bull from a cow?
Sheer luck. A cow has to be bred to a bull, and then you wait for around 285 days to see if you get a bull or a heifer from her. It's a 50/50 chance that you'll get a bull or heifer. You can also be sure you're going to get a bull from your cow if you artificially inseminate her with sexed semen. This means that each individual sperm that is given to her has the Y chromosome that will ensure a bull calf is born.

You have inseminated your cow 6 times in 6 months but it has not conceived What could be the reason?
There are plenty of reasons you could be having a problem. The first set of reasons are "operator error" - did you inseminate 12 hours after observing a standing heat? Did you inseminate into the uterus, completely through the cervix? Did you keep the semen straws frozen properly until useage? The second set of reasons are "cow problems" - does the cow have a normal uterus? Does the cow ovulate, or is she developing cystic ovaries? Does the cow have fertile oocytes? Both sets of problems can be easily evaluated by your veterinarian - after 6 months, I would suggest paying the farm call fee and have him/her out.
What are the advantages of identifying estrus cycles in cows?

Can a brahman bull mount a tiny jersey cow?
Not without injuring her. However, it depends on the size of the bull and cow in question. If the bull is just a yearling on a mature cow, yes you may. If the bull is a big mature guy, it wouldn't be recommended that he goes anywhere near her, no matter if she's a mature cow or a young heifer, by any producer with a lick of common sense. If she is a young heifer, no to either mature bull nor the yearling. Brahman bulls are not small by any means, and he will injure that cow if he's allowed to mate with her; if he doesn't injure her during the process of conception, the injuries will show up when she's close to calving: i.e., you will get a downer cow with spinal or hip problems. It's best if you get semen from him and artificially inseminate the cow instead, or if you can find a Brahman bull with low birth weight EPDs that you can get semen from, use that bull on her instead.
