Overview

Abattoir survey reveals 63% prevalence of clinical mastitis in sahel goats, highlighting economic losses and health risks.

Key Points

  • Clinical mastitis prevalence among sahel goats is 63%, indicating a serious health concern that could impact herd productivity.
  • Staphylococcus aureus was isolated in 80% of clinical mastitis cases, thus representing a major pathogen contributing to this condition.
  • In-depth pathological assessment conducted in Maiduguri identified various gross lesions associated with mastitis, emphasizing the need for early screening.
  • Findings suggest significant economic implications due to decreased milk yield and increased veterinary costs linked to clinical mastitis.
