Description Not Available
Foot-and-mouth Disease (FMD) is a highly
contagious viral disease of domesticated livestock,
primarily cattle, buffalo and pigs. Sheep, goat and
different species of wild life are also susceptible to
the disease. India has a FMD susceptible livestock
population of >500 million (DAHD&F, GoI,
2012). The economic loss to the livestock industry
attributed to this dreaded disease is huge. There
are direct and indirect losses due to this disease.
Direct loss is estimated at >20,000 crore/annum
that is due to significant drop in milk yield (up to
80%), loss in drought power, reduction in meat and
wool production, abortion in pregnant animals and
mortality in calves. Indirect loss could be much
more due to trade barrier imposed by the countries
free from FMD, and massive expenditure by
Government on FMD control and cost of treatment.
The causative FMD virus (FMDV) is antigenically diverse having seven distinct serotypes (O, A, C,
Asia1) and Southern African Territories (SAT)
1-3 and multiple genetic groups in each serotype.
Currently three serotypes (O, A and Asia1) are
prevalent in India. Serotype O is the most prevalent
one followed by serotypes Asia1 and A.
