DIGITAL DERMATITIS IN THE COWS
Abstract
Bovine digital dermatitis a disease of unknown aetiology, is characterised by the presence of annular erythematous lesion on the volar aspect of the limb the just proximal to the heel horn. It is associated with variable degrees of the lameness. Economically, the result of digital dermatitis (reduced milk yields, lower reproductive performance, increased involuntary cull rates, discarded milk, and the additional labor cost) are much greater than the treatments costs.
