Vaccinate all the animals as per the suggestions of the veterinarian and recommendations of the Animal Husbandry department.
Maintain hygienic standards in the farm to prevent the spread of the disease.
Vaccinate the animals according to the season.
Before conducting any animal in the herd, get its vaccination history and get the animal's health checked by a veterinarian.
Do not allow untrained professionals to inseminate your animals.
If any discharge from vulva or abortion is observed in the herd, immediately report the veterinarian.
Do not attend or treat the reproductive organs of animals by yourself as it may cause zoonotic disease, and may even cause irreparable damage to the reproductive organ.
Maintain a history record book of herd vaccinations, movement of cattle to and from other premises, inducted animal source and management and origin of bulls.
Keep reproductive history records of animals, including type of infection, number of abortions, conception rate, and approximate breeding dates.
Separate diseased animals from healthy animals.
Always attend to healthy animals first and then diseased animals. If possible, there should be separate attendant for the healthy and diseased animals.
Use gloves and mask to attend diseased animals as some diseases are zoonotic and dispose the biological materials properly as per the advice of veterinarian.
Always wash hands after attending to diseased animals.
If there is case of abortion in the herd, identify the animal and separate the same from the herd.
Use gloves and mask while attending to such animals and never reuse them again.
Dispose the mask and biological material like an aborted fetus by incineration or by dumping under a deep pit after treating the material with disinfectants.
Testing of Brucella should be a part of every pre-breeding evaluation.
Conduct test/molecular tests that are specific for the pathogen to identify the root cause.
Blood tests and microbial cultures may be used for the diagnosis of disease and pathogen detection.
Blood or discharge material may be sent to a suitable laboratory for the diagnosis of disease and detection of the causative pathogen.
Antimicrobial sensitivity tests should be done to develop suitable strategies for the treatment of animals.
Farmers should be trained to handle the diseased animals aseptically and should be sensitized about its importance.
If there is a pathogen that has a high infectivity rate, appropriate measures like vaccination of other animals, informing higher authorities etc. should be taken.
