Studying the historical aspect of the development of veterinary medicine in the southern regions of Ukraine at the end of the twentieth century. The purpose of this work was to study the use of folk methods of treatment of productive animals in the southern regions of Ukraine, in particular in the Odesa region, and to analyze their effectiveness from the point of view of traditional and modern veterinary medicine. The information was collected by interviewing animal owners who kept animals at that time, veterinary specialists who had a veterinary practice, and by searching for archival and literature sources in various scientific databases. As a result of the research, it was found that the vast majority of folk methods used in rural areas of Odesa Oblast in the late twentieth century were related to the treatment of the most common diseases of cattle, both adult and young, while the number of methods for other animal species was limited. The therapeutic effect of most of these methods was based on the therapeutic effect obtained from local medicinal plants, which formed their basis. The main areas of application of alternative therapies were to help animals with digestive dysfunction – dyspepsia in young animals and atony of the fore stomach, skin diseases, parasitic diseases and mastitis in cows. The analysis of the methods used to treat animals indicates a deep knowledge of the medicinal effects of the plants and substances used by animal owners. The effectiveness of the treatment methods described in this article is confirmed by their use in the professional practice of veterinary specialists. Thus, the conducted studies indicate a significant influence of folk veterinary medicine at the end of the last century on the treatment of productive animals from private households, which at that time made up the majority of livestock in Ukraine
