A study on occurrence of various clinical diseases and disorders in goat at Tangail Sadar Thana in Tangail District.

Abstract

The study was carried out at Tangail Sadar Thana in Tangail district for a period of two months to observe the occurrence of clinical diseases and disorders in goat. Diagnosis of each of the clinical diseases and disorders were made on the basis of history, physical examination of the animals and microscopic examination of samples. These clinical diseases and disorders were divided into 6groups namely bacterial disease, viral disease, parasitic disease, non- infectious disease, reproductive disease and surgical cases. A total 130 sick goats were examined during the study period where the percentage of different diseases were bacterial diseases 22.31%, viral diseases 2.31%, parasitic diseases 37.69%, non Infectious diseases 23.07%, reproductive diseases 4.62% and surgical cases 10%. At the time of study the occurrence of gastro- intestinal parasitism, urolithiasis, diarrhea, fever and cysticercosis were high and they were 6.15%, 6.93%, 6.93%, 6.15% and 6.15% respectively. The different diseases and disorders occur due to lack of proper management, lack of proper knowledge of the farmer and also due to avoidance of proper vaccination & medication to the goat. If we take the proper precaution measures about different diseases and disorders, then the percentage of occurrence of different diseases and disorders in goat can be minimized, and ultimately the production performance of small ruminant industry can be improved.
