Overview

Cross-sectional study assessed mastitis prevalence in dairy cattle, indicating significant health risks and management challenges.

Key Points

  • Overall mastitis prevalence in the surveyed cows was found to be 41.5%, with specific rates for clinical and subclinical mastitis.
  • The California Mastitis Test was used to accurately detect subclinical mastitis among the dairy cattle in the study.
  • Crossbred dairy cows had the highest mastitis prevalence at 51.8%, emphasizing the need for targeted interventions.
  • Identifying and addressing risk factors like breed and hygiene practices is crucial for effective mastitis control.
