摘要
The present study deals with the prevalence of livestock diseases of these islands. Randomly blood samples were collected from cattle, goat and swine and were subjected to various serological tests for screening of important diseases. The results revealed the prevalence of B. abortus agglutinins as 13.83%, IBR as 17.68% and leptospirosis as 2.44%, respectively, while none of the samples were positive for FMD and PPR. The faecal examination revealed the prevalence of eggs of Strongyle spp. (23.0%), Fasciola spp. (10.50%) and Amphistomes (24.50%). A high rate of humpsore (35.0%) was recorded in the cattle. The seroscreening of the goat sera samples revealed the prevalence of Brucella melitensis (11.96%), Mycoplasma capri (15.70%) and leptospirosis (16.41%). However, none of the samples were positive for PPR and bluetongue respectively. The prevalence of swine fever was 32.65%.
