(PharmaNewsWire.Com, July 07, 2017 ) The U.S. feedlot industry estimates a huge annual loss for bovine respiratory disease (BRD) due to loss of production, increased labour expenses, pharmaceutical costs and death deriving from BRD.
BRD refers to any disease of the lower or upper respiratory tracts in cattle and is commonly associated with lung infections, which can cause pneumonia. Bovine Respiratory Disease is far too common, far too costly and for the most part, seems far too hard to handle. If cattle are treated more than once, they never get back to that peak performance.
The disease is caused by variety of factors such as Host factors which includes animal age, immunity, genetics and exposure to pathogens, Environmental factors involves crowding, temperature, commingling and transport, Internal or external parasite infections and Infectious agents. The weight loss that animal has due to BRD sickness will stay with them throughout the feeding period. Hence, productivity is reduced.
