The disease trend of livestock and poultry
indicated that very few deadly viral and
bacterial diseases are prevalent in the A & N
Islands. The prevalence of parasitic diseases
is reported to be very high in almost all
parts of the Islands. An understanding of the
epidemiology of disease is crucial for the
development and implementation of effective
diagnosis, treatment, control, and managemental
practices. Hence, temporal and
spatial epidemiological study of the livestock
diseases was carried out. Among the
parasitic disease, highest number of cases
were reported due to ascariasis (34.02%)
followed by fascioliasis (29.6%), amphistomiasis
(25.5%), and strongyloids (10.9%).
The trend showed that parasitic diseases
increase during the rainy season (July to December).
The secular trend of other diseases
indicated that sero-prevalence of Infectious
bovine rhinotracheatis (IBR) was found to
be 20.58%, which is on increasing trend as
compared to last 5 years data. The seroprevalence
of Brucella abortus was 12.84%
during the period 2000 to 2014.However,
during the last 4 years the prevalence is
found to be nil. The sero-prevalence of peste
des petits virus (54.93%) and bluetongue
(77.9%) has been detected for the first time.
The high prevalence of PPR and BT in goats
is considered to be an alarming situation.
The island has become presently free from
goat and bovine brucellosis, goat and bovine
tuberculosis. However, there is alarming
situation of emergence of few bovine and
