The crisis, as a negative deviation that is serious and can jeopardize the company's business usually doesn't occur suddenly, but gradually in individual areas, accumulating its effects. The crisis caused by the pandemic came suddenly and immediately caused a disruption of economic activities, without the possibility to predict and prevent it. It hit the agricultural sector with great intensity. The analysis of the business entities in agricultural sector in Serbia has shown that these entities suffered great damage and that it is necessary to take restructuring measures as soon as possible, primarily organizational ones. The results of the research showed that the crisis caused by COVID 19, mainly affected the entire long chain of participants in agriculture. Government measures, which included providing financial support and subsidies, are certainly welcome but not sufficient. The authors concluded that it is therefore necessary for companies to implement restructuring measures in order to ensure a speedy recovery.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the parameters of intraoperative and postoperative pain in bitches undergoing laparoscopic or conventional ovariectomy. The study was conducted on 20 healthy, adult bitches of medium and large breeds. All the bitches were subjected to the same anesthetic protocol. Carprofen was applied preoperatively, and general anaesthesia was carried out with a combination of medetomidine, propofol and sevofl urane. The bitches were divided into two groups of 10 individuals each. The fi rst group underwent conventional ovariectomy while the second one was subjected to the laparoscopic procedure. The intensity of intraoperative pain was estimated at different time points by measuring changes in heart and respiratory rate, arterial blood pressure, and body temperature. A multifactor pain scale was used to assess the intensity of postoperative pain. Dogs in the group which was scheduled for conventional ovariectomy (COV group) responded to painful intra-operative stimuli with increased heart rate and respiratory rate. Arterial blood pressure and body temperature decrease was detected in COV group. Laparoscopic ovariectomy induced less intra-and postoperative pain when compared to conventional ovariectomy. Beside that, the total anaesthesia time and postoperative recovery were shorter in dogs that underwent laparascopic ovariectomy.
