Disease Control in Livestock

Disease control in livestock involves strategies to prevent, detect, and manage illnesses among farm animals. This includes vaccinations to boost immunity, proper hygiene and sanitation to reduce infection risks, quarantine and separating sick animals, and regular health monitoring by veterinarians. Effective disease control helps ensure animal health, prevents outbreaks, reduces economic losses, and minimizes the risk of transmitting diseases to humans. It is a critical part of responsible livestock management, combining good practices, biosecurity measures, and veterinary care to maintain healthy animals and safe food supplies.
