“…This observation supports the earlier reports of Samad (2001), Rahman et al (2012), Karim et al (2014), andMajumder et al (2022). This study found that the prevalence of parasitic diseases (30.16%), infectious diseases (21.84%), general systemic states (20.12%) and digestive disorders (18.55%) were significantly higher (P<0.001) among the ten disease categories, which is consistent with the findings of Alam et al ( 2018 This study found 30.16% of cattle with parasitic diseases, which is comparable to earlier studies that found 30.64%-33.86% of cattle with parasitic diseases (Badruzzaman et al, 2015;Juli et al, 2015;Sarker et al, 2015;Meher et al, 2021). However, Mostari et al (2020) reported a lower (8.91%) and Rahman et al (2012) reported a higher (50.40%) prevalence of parasitic diseases in cattle.…”

“…The low occurrence of clinical diseases in calves is attributable to acquired maternal immunity as well as the fact that they do not come into direct contact with contaminated feed. Male cattle (51.78%) were significantly (P < 0.05) more susceptible to diseases than females, which corresponds to the findings of and Meher et al (2021), but differs from the findings of others (Lucky et al, 2016;Rahman et al, 2017;Alam et al, 2018;Majumder et al, 2022). Surgical cases were insignificantly higher in male cattle, which is consistent with the findings of Hossain et al (2016) but contradictory to the findings of Mannan et al (2009).…”

Cattle are a significant component of livestock that provides food, draft power, transportation, hides, bones, and biogas. However, they are affected by various diseases that can lead to economic losses for the farmers. This study was conducted to determine the clinical prevalence of diseases in cattle attended at the Upazilla (sub-district) Veterinary Hospital, Mirzapur, in the Tangail district during the period between January 2017 and December 2018. A total of 22,418 clinical cases of cattle were diagnosed using general, physical, clinical, and microscopic examinations, as well as other conventional laboratory procedures. The recorded clinical cases were classified into ten major diagnostic groups. Parasitic diseases (30.16%), infectious diseases (21.84%), general systemic states (20.12%), digestive disorders (18.55%), gyneco-obstetrical diseases (4.37%), and surgical cases (3.06%) were recorded as major clinical problems, with other diseases having a prevalence of less than 1% for each. Among the ten categories, the prevalence of parasitic diseases, infectious diseases, general systemic states, and digestive disorders was significantly (P < 0.001) higher. The diseases were significantly (P < 0.001) associated with cattle age, sex and season. Clinical prevalence of the diseases was significantly (P < 0.05) higher in adults (63.59%) and males (51.78%) than in young (36.40%) and females (48.22%). The summer season (40.13%) had a significantly higher prevalence of clinical diseases (P < 0.05) than the winter (33.29%) and rainy (26.58%) seasons. According to this study, a number of cattle diseases with varying percentages and factors occurred in Mirzapur Upazila. The findings may be useful in developing control strategies for the major diseases reported in this study. Appropriate strategic measures should be taken to control the diseases in the study area to minimize the farmers' production losses.

Background and Aim: Small ruminants require vaccines to prevent and manage diseases. Unfortunately, no studies have been conducted in Bangladesh to assess the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) of small ruminant farmers (SRF) regarding vaccine use against infectious diseases, affecting the success of vaccination campaigns. The present study aims to assess SRF’s KAP regarding vaccines, revealing gaps and barriers to efficient vaccination. Materials and Methods: Two hundred and twenty-eight SRF in northern Bangladesh were surveyed in a cross-sectional study. Data were collected from random participants through face-to-face interviews using a structured questionnaire. KAP levels were categorized as “good” or “poor” and “positive” or “negative” using a scoring method with a 60% cutoff. The analysis comprised the utilization of descriptive statistics as well as logistic regression models. Results: Results showed that most participants were female (60.5%), aged 31–40 (34.2%), with secondary education (28.1%), and vaccination training (22.8%). While 75% knew about vaccines, only 37.3% understood their role in preventing infectious diseases, and 63.6% in reducing antibiotic use 68.4% of farmers were aware of negative drawbacks, and 61.8% reported vaccinating their herds. About 42.1% of the farmers had good knowledge, 52.6% had a positive attitude, and 22.8% followed good practices. Female farmers with graduate degrees and 6–10 years of goat farming experience, but not those with vaccination training, demonstrated stronger knowledge. Female farmers with a graduate degree and 6–10 years of goat farming experience displayed positive attitudes. Female goat farmers from Thakurgaon had a higher likelihood of following good vaccination practices than those with vaccination training. Conclusion: The study unearths disparities in KAP scores among farmers. To effectively address KAP gaps concerning vaccine usage and prevent potential infectious diseases, it is essential to design focused educational and training programs. About 52.6% of SRF hold a positive view toward vaccines. Keywords: Bangladesh, knowledge, attitudes, and practices, small ruminant farmers, vaccine use.
