1 Livestock Diseases in Sub-Himalayan Temperate Region - a Garrett s Ranking Analysis H.R. Meena*, Hira Ram and Pankaj Seth Indian Veterinary Research Institute, Izatnagar India *correspondence author E mail: drhrmeena@yahoo.co.in, hans_meena@rediffmail.com Abstract Livestock rearing is an integral component of the rural economy of sub-himalayan region and it acquires special importance in mountain farming system. Rearing of livestock s in the hilly region is more difficult in comparison to the plain areas. Some of the basic problems for animal rearing in hilly regions, like shortage of feed and fodder, low productivity of animals and poor conception rate of the artificial insemination have been reported as major problem in the past. Fifteen clusters of villages were identified and selected for the purpose of study. In general, these villages are located at 32.6 o N (latitude); 76.3 o E (longitude); 1,290.8 m (altitude). The area is characterized by mild summer and moderate to severe winter having the mean monthly minimum temperature varying from 5.0±0.9 o C in January to 20.4±1.2 o C in June. Garett s ranking technique was followed to analyse the particular problem or disease perceived by the farmers as well as identify by the multidiscipline teams in livestock. In cattle, highest incidence of haematuria (16.74%) was recorded followed by repeat breeding (14.97%). Whereas in case of buffalo emaciation / weakness (17.24%), GI parasitic infections (16.09%), and tick/ lice infestation (16.09%) were the major problems and having 1 st, 2 nd, and 3 rd ranks, respectively. Parasitic infections (36.84%), diarrhoea/ dysentery (31.57%) and tick / lice infestation (14.03%) were recorded as major problem in goats. The major disease/ disorder observed in bullocks were haematuria (28.23%), urinary problem (24.70%) and parasitic infestation (16.47 %) and ranked 1 st, 2 nd and 3 rd respectively. In the horse/ ponies parasitic infestation (37.93%) followed by weakness (24.13%) and tick/ lice infestation (17.24%) and Parasitic infections (31.81%) followed by mange (27.27%) were the major health problem in the pet s animals having 1 st and 2 nd ranks. The study in lighted the animal health scenario in the region. Key words: livestock farmers, Livestock farming, animal diseases, Constraints, Hills Introduction Livestock rearing is an integral component of the rural economy of Uttarakhand state and it acquires special importance in mountain farming system (Singh et. al., 2004). Based on the prevailing geography, the whole state has three clear cut divisions namely, tarai, bhanwar and hills. However, rearing of livestock s in the hilly region is more difficult in comparison to the rest part of the state. Some of the basic problems for animal rearing in hilly regions, like shortage of feed and fodder, low productivity of animals and poor conception rate of the artificial insemination have been reported as major problem in the past (Singh and Tulachan, 2001; Meena, et al.2007; Paswan et al,2008; Meena, et al 2008). However, there are still many Page160
2 untouched aspects in the animal husbandry sector of this area, which needs serious understanding and follow ups for improvement in health and productivity of animals. Therefore, considering all these facts, a survey was conducted to study, document and rank the prevalent health and reproductive problems of animal in the sub Himalayan region of Uttarakhand state. Research Methodology The State Uttarakhand, state lies between 28 o 53' 24''~31 o 27' 50'' N and 77 o 34' 27''~81 o 02' 22'' E. It occupies 17.3% of India s total land and about 6.0 million (94.4 per sq km) population residing in the state (Sati, 2005). Of its total geographical area, about 47,325 sq km is covered by mountains, while 3,800 sq km is Tarai plains. The mid Himalayan region (at a height of 1000 to 3500 m) contains many peaks of mountains, meadows, rivers, streams, charming valleys and fertile lands as well. The Tarai plains are 150 km long and 40 km wide, and are about 230 m above from sea level. The entire region of Uttarakhand is geographically important and comprises of the two distinct landscapes i.e. the Garhwal and Kumaon Himalaya. Mixed farming system has been the choice of farmers in the mountainous agro-ecosystem, as livestock are integral components in the hilly agriculture (Chander and Mukherjee, 1995). The livestock being reared in the region are hill cattle, cross-bred cattle, buffalo, goats, sheep, horse and ponies. Study Area Fifteen clusters of villages Pokhari, Piotholi, Gahna, Darim, Badat, Harinagar, Garhgoan, Simayal, Mukteswar, Beethickhali, Supi, Khafli, Buri bana, Dhana chulli and Kasialack were identified and selected for the purpose of study. In general, these villages are located at 32.6 o N (latitude); 76.3 o E (longitude); 1,290.8 m (altitude). The area is characterized by mild summer and moderate to severe winter having the mean monthly minimum temperature varying from 5.0±0.9 o C in January to 20.4±1.2 o C in June. Similarly, the mean maximum temperature in the area ranges from 14.7±1.8 o C in January to 29.6±3.4 o C in June. The average monthly rainfall ranged from a minimum of 26.5±29.4 mm in October to a maximum 655.2±175.8 mm in August and the relative humidity ranges from 35.8% in the months of April to 77.6% in August. Selection of Villages and Organization of Animal Health Camps For the collection of relevant information s with reference to human population, livestock population, animal husbandry practices and veterinary inputs, linkages between the IVRI Page161
3 Mukteswar and the state departments as well as other working NGOs in the area were established first. Then a survey was conducted at the basic household s level, which represents the smallest unit in a village. Three hundred households from different nearby villages were selected by random sampling technique and the farmers were inquired through personal interview based on a questionnaire prepared for documentation of existing animal husbandry practices and problems faced by the farmers. On the basis of prevailing animal population in different villages, fifteen clusters were identified (one cluster represented four to five villages) for the organization of animal health as well as vaccination camps. These camps were organized during ; with the help of multidisciplinary group of scientists specialized in animal health and production. The livestock owners attending these camps along with animals were also interviewed for collection of information/ data generation on animal health problems, diseases and existing managemental practices. Meteorological data were collected from the meteorological observatory IVRI, Mukteswar, District Nainital (Uttarakhand). The detail information generated in the process was analyzed to record the occurrence of a disease or health problem, in term of frequency or percentage (%) and according to prevalence rate, rank order was given for a particular problem or disease. Garett s ranking technique was followed to analyse the particular problem or disease perceived by the farmers in livestock. The farmers were asked to rank the factors that were limiting the livestock production. These orders of merit were transformed into units of scores by using the following formula. 100 (R ij 0.50) Per cent position = N j Where, R ij - Rank given for the i th factor by the jth individual N j - Number of factor ranked by the j th individual. The percent position is converted into scores by referring to the Table given by Garett and Woodworth (1969). Then for each factor the scores of the individual respondents were added Page162
4 together and divided by the total number of respondents for whom scores were added. These mean scores for all the factors were arranged in descending order and the most influencing factors were identified through the ranks assigned. Results and Discussion Livestock Population In the study area, cattle population (4,341) was recorded maximum as compared to other livestock species (table-1). Buffalo population (1,936) in study area is less because of prevailing adverse climate condition and lack of feed and fodder. Sheep and goat population (3,481) seemed to be low also and farmers experiencing much problem in small ruminant production because of the different rules imposed by forest department which restrict the free grazing of these animals. Equines, mostly ponies are the means of transport in the hilly terrain and farmers use them for transportation of farm produce from field to road sides.

In cattle, highest incidence of haematuria (16.74%) was recorded followed by repeat breeding (14.97%). Where as urinary problem and parasitic infestation was 3 rd and 4 th rank. Anoestrus (8.37%) in cow ranks fifth and is also a very important disease which is the cause of huge economic losses in the region. Other Disease/ disorder observed were emaciation / weakness, tick / lice infestations, mastitis, tympaitis / bloat, warts, abortion, diarrhoea / dysentery and mange as depicted in table no. 2. Fetal anomalies and monstrocities of various kind causing dystocia in cattle (Arthur et al., 1989, Shukla and Chauhan 2004) also reported by the other researchers. Sl.

It is also to mention that population of buffaloes are less in the study area. In case of buffalo emaciation / weakness (17.24%), GI parasitic infections (16.09%), and tick/ lice infestation (16.09%) were the major problems and having 1 st, 2 nd, and 3 rd ranks, respectively. Repeat breeding (13.79%), anoestrus (12.64%), tympaitis / bloat (5.74%), abortion (4.59%) diarrhoea/ dysentery (4.59%), mange infestation (4.59%) were other common diseases/ disorder in the buffaloes as indicated in table no.3. In case of buffaloes, haemachuria, urinary problem and teat warts were not observed even they are being reared along with cattle in the same herd/ shed. Bovine mastitis is an important and a persistent infection in the buffalo population producing economic losses; drop in milk production, increased cost of treatment and culling process (Dhakal and Thapa, 2002 and Singh and Bansal, 2004).

However, mange, emaciation/ weakness and abortion were other disease / disorder observed during the health camps. Heavy infection of gastrointestinal parasites in small ruminants is responsible for ill health and production losses (Ram, 2007). Epidemiological study from different part of the country revealed 67.4% incidence of strongyle worm in small ruminant in Jammu (Khajuria and Kapoor, 2003, 58.8% in Kashmir (Nasreen et.al.,2005); 94% in Himachal Pradesh (Jithenderan, 1998); 77.3% in Sikkim (Pal and Bandyopadhyay, 2004) and 58.5% in Tamil Nadu (Balasubramanian et. al., 2001). Inadequate nutrition coupled with high levels of parasite infestation contributes to high reproductive and productive wastage in small ruminant herds regardless of size and production system (Preston and Allonby, 1979; ILCA, 1988; ILCA, 1989; ILCA, 1990).

The major disease/ disorder observed in bullocks were haematuria (28.23%), urinary problem (24.70%) and parasitic infestation (16.47 %) and ranked 1 st, 2 nd and 3 rd respectively as shown in table 5. Further, emaciation/ weakness (9.41%), diarrhoea (7.05%), tympaitis/bloat (7.05 %) and tick infestation (4.70 %) were other health problems in these animals. In the area of study, haematuria is the most common problems in cattle bullock whereas some case of female cattle also observed. In case of buffalo whether it is male or female no single case of haematuria was observed, even both species cattle and buffalo were living in same conditions. Farmers also offering the same kind of feed and fodder to both species of animals but cattle are allowed more frequently for grazing in forest pasture land and buffaloes are not allowed to graze to graze that extent. In India, most of the heamaturia cases are observed in Himalayan region and bracken fern (Pteridium aquilinum) a very common grass available in this region has been considered as causative agent for the same. Some of the researcher from other country also reported that Page167
9 chronic enzootic haematuria (CEH) is a severe syndrome due to prolonged ingestion of bracken fern (Pteridium aquilinum), the only plant proven to cause cancer in animals (Smith, 1997). This syndrome occurs in several areas worldwide and is very common in southern Italy where bracken fern is widespread (Borzacchiello, et. al., 2003). In an epidemiological study association between CEH and the level of pasture infestation with bracken fern has been demonstrated (Pinto et al., 2000). It is well known that this plant contains toxic compounds like ptaquiloside (PT) and quercetin, which have mutagenic and carcinogenic effects, mainly in the urinary bladder (Borzacchiello, et.al, 2003). PT is a sesquiterpenoid glycoside capable of inducing clastogenesis in cell cultures and also with mutagenic and carcinogenic activity (Smith, 1997; Carvalho, 2006).

Urinary problem and mange infestation were also observed in these animals. The least health care to these animals by the farmers and poor management was also observed. Owners of these animals were not providing even regular deworming. Disease/ Disorder Diagnosed in Pet Animals In the Kumaon hill almost every family have one dog and a cat in the house and they are integral part of rural life. Farmers are rearing these pet animals in hill areas from time immemorial. The main reason for pet animals rearing in the region seems to be the indication and help received by the farmers for presence/ attack of the wild animals. Dogs particularly Bhutia breed has been considered as a very good guard for domestic animals when they are in grazing in forest land. In the Kumaon hill region, farmers do not provide specific feed to the pets and they are provided only the surpluses and/or left over foods of the family members. Parasitic infections (31.81%) followed by mange (27.27%) were the major health problem in the pet s animals having 1 st and 2 nd ranks. In pets, diarrhoea/dysentery (15.90%), tick/lice infestation (13.63%), tympaitis/ bloat (6.81%) and emaciation/ weakness (4.54%) were other notable problem observed in the animal health camps as indicated in table 7.
