PREDISPOSING FACTORS INFLUENCING THE OCCURRENCE OF DOWNER COW SYNDROME IN DAIRY ANIMALS IN SELECTED DISTRICTS OF TAMIL NADU, INDIA
Keywords:
Abstract
Downer Cow Syndrome (DCS) is a debilitating condition observed in dairy animals that significantly affects their welfare and productivity. This study aims to identify the predisposing factors influencing the occurrence of DCS in dairy animals in selected districts of Tamil Nadu, India. A total of X dairy farms was selected for the study, and data were collected through structured interviews, clinical examinations, and laboratory analysis. The collected data were analysed using statistical methods to identify the significant predisposing factors associated with DCS. The results provide insights into the key factors contributing to the occurrence of DCS in dairy animals and can aid in formulating preventive strategies and management interventions to reduce the incidence of this syndrome.
