Description An outbreak of nitrate poisoning due to accidental ingestion of Salvia coccinea vernacularly called Kali phool by a flock of 300 migratory Gaddi goats with 20% mortality was reported during winter in Kangra Valley, Himachal Pradesh, India. The history, clinical signs, characteristic post mortem findings, presence of excess level of nitrates in the foliage of Salvia coccinea plants (12.63% on dry matter basis) and 6.2 mg % of nitrite contents in the sera of ailing goats evidences the nitrate poisoning owing to Salvia coccinea (Kali phool) among Gaddi goats.
