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. KVK Pali |
