Abstract

Seven percent (242/3484) of the goats examined from various farms in Peninsular Malaysia had evidence of caseous lymphadenitis as demonstrated by the gel diffusion technique. Three states, namely Kedah (10.8%), Negeri Sembilan (6.8%) and Selangor (6.7%) had high prevalence of infection. A higher prevalence was observed in the intensive farms (9.4%) as compared to the smallholders (1.0%). Pusat Ternakan Haiwan, Gajah Mati was shown to have the highest prevalence (15.8%) among all the farms. A study of the UPM Goat Units indicated a high prevalence (14.6%) of the infection amongst the animals. The management, breeds and age of the animals in relation to the prevalence of CLA are discussed •
