Prevalence of clinical mastitis at Babugonj upazila in Barishal
Abstract
This research was conducted from August 2022 to December 2022, and its goal was to ascertain the prevalence of clinical mastitis in dairy animals that were lactating. During the investigation, 573 dairy animals were brought into the Upazila Veterinary Hospital in Babuganj, Barishal. Clinical mastitis was evident in 72 cattle and 21 goats following the signs and symptoms. According to species variation, mastitis prevalence in cattle and goats was 12.56% and 3.66%. Mastitis was common in cattle, with cross-breeds having a prevalence of 10.86% and local breeds having a prevalence of 5.09%. Mastitis was more common in Jamnapari goat breeds than indigenous, non-descriptive breeds, with prevalence rates of 9.83% and 7.37%, respectively. In comparison to medium (30.55%) and small size (20.84%) farms, large (48.6%) farms had the greatest proportion of mastitis in the case of cows, whereas small scale (57.15%) farms had the highest rate of mastitis in the case of goat farms. Mid-lactation had the highest prevalence of mastitis in cattle (58.33%), followed by early (29.17%) and late lactation (12.5%). In cows, one quarter is more affected (9.31%) than two or more (6.65%) quarters. The rate of mastitis in farms with a soiled floor or a floor constructed of clay (66.67%) is much greater than number in farms with a concrete or brick-block floor (33.33%) for cows. Similar findings were seen for goat farms, where the percentages were 85.72% for a soiled floor and 14.28% for a concrete or bricked floor. Mastitis was more common in cases of poor hygiene in both species, where 13.97% of cows and 10.65% of does were affected. In both bovine and goat mastitis, the response to therapy was favorable with Gentamicin (84.61%), Ceftriaxone (100%), and the combination of streptomycin and penicillin (76.92%).
