Abstract

The study highlights the direct and financially accountable economic losses due to brucellosis in bovine. Among 396 cattle and 643 buffaloes screened for brucellosis using i ELISA, 72 (18.18%) cattle and 76 (11.82%) buffaloes were found positive. Economic losses accruing due to brucellosis were maximum (86.03 to 86.44%) due to reduction in milk production followed by treatment cost and loss of calf due to abortion.
