Description Research paper for ITK in sheep
The present study was carried out in the purposively selected Marwar region of Rajasthan. A multistage stratified random
sampling design was used to select the districts, blocks, villages and sample households. A sample of 240 households was
selected for the present study. Data were collected personally through a well structured and pre-tested interview schedule.
It was found that majority of the households (66.25%) were initially providing self medication using traditional practices
and in cases of severity of disease/ailment, village quack was consulted. Vaccination of sheep was followed in only 48.75
per cent of the selected households. In addition, in only 36 households (31.25%) the sick animals were isolated from the
flock. A variety of traditional practices were observed being followed for treatment of various ailments and diseases of the
goat and sheep with the use of locally available material, herbs, etc.
