4 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, August 24,.1977 Secion Two Agritur al News, By Rod Stork, Assoc. Agricultural Representative Keep Brucellosis out of your Herd Recent changes in United States import regulations for Canadian dairy cattie make it particularly important * that Ontario cattiemen minimize the chance of bruceilosis infecting their herds. Bruceliosis is a highiy contagious reportable disease which can cause abortions in cattie. The disease is under the jurisdiction of the Healthl of Animais Branch, Agricul- ture Canada. Brucellosis is not a new disease. Athough brucellosis had been reduced to a very low level a few years ago, there are now a sub- stantial number of herds affected and under quarantine in Ontario. Ontario cattie producers should take every precaution to make sure bruceliosis is not introduced into their herds. This wili require a reai effort and certainiy some inconven- ience and cost for producers. Moist herds become infected when producers purchase animais with unknown heaith status. The following are, recommendations to heip pre- Vent brucellosis being intro- duced into a herd: 1. Buy animais from known negative herds.1 2. When purchasing ani- mais, ensure they are blood- tested for bruceilosis on the seller's premises. The animais should be negative to the brucellosis test before they are brought to your farm, 3.. When the new animais arrive on your farm, isolate them from the home herd and have them retested after a 60-day period. If they are negative to this second test, they May bc permitted to have contact with the home herd. 4. If a purchased cow or heifer is pregnant, keep the animal in isolation and biood- test it for brucellosis 30 days after the animai has calved before ailowîng it to have contact with your herd. Brucellosis is most commonly spread at caiving time. 5. Do not ailow your herd to have contact with cattie of unknown health status in places such as pastures or livestock trucks. 6. Do not visit other cattie barns and keep other people away from your herd. The bruceilosis orgànism can be spread on boots and ciothing and by stray dogs. 7. Run a dlean stable, parlor and- yard. Good sanitation procedures alwayg pay off. 1 Producers should work closely with veterinarians to keep herds free of brucellosis. If additionai guidance is required, contact the nearest Heaith of Animais Branch office or Veterinary Services Branch office or iaboratory. Ontario Ministry of Agricul- ture and Food Veterinary Services laboratories are located in Ridgetown, Huron Park, Brighton, Kemptviile, Guelph and New Liskeard The most important factor in the control and eradication of bruceliosis is the under- standing and cooperation of cattie owners. 1Warble Fiy Control It has become apparent during the past few months the warble fly damage is again increasing. Ontario meat packing plants have confirmed that the damage to beef carcasses and the amount of trimming and ioss due to warbie damage is greater this year thari it has been for some time. Ap- pareitly, the same situation exists in Western Canada. As a, result, severai meetings have been held învolving staff of this Ministry together with representatives of Agriculture Canada, the Meat Packers Council and the- Ontario Cattiemen's Association. It is obvious that a serious problem exists and the method of controliing the problem is equally obvious. Systemic insecticides pro- vide an effective means of treatment at a very low cost compared to the benefits derived from treatment. Despite this, it is obvious that many producers are negligent in treating their cattie. Since it is not readily apparent that the solution lies in new or stricter regulations, we are trying to develop as broad and effective an educational and extension program as pos- sible. Vour assistance in drawing producers' attention to the damage caused by warble grubs and in promoting the use of systemics wili be very much appreciated. It seems that the apathy of producers is due to the fact that few producers, realize that packers discount cattie for severai months of the year because of the knowledge that a consider- able percentage of such cattie wiil bte infested with warble grubs and the carcasses wil require trimmîng. Loss to producers aiso, of course, is caused by lower growth rate and milk production in the summer as a resuit of cattie gadding and also in- the fali and winter months due to the effects of the iarvae migrating through the animais' body. The total cost to producers is several million dollars a year but- since few producers can actually identify a personai, los s, there seems to be a general indifference to solving the problem. Several different. possible approaches have been discus- sed with the varîous segments of the industry including the possibility of a specific de- duction on any warble infested cattie. Packing house repre- sentatives feel that the book- keeping involved in such an approach makes this imprac- ticai from their. standpoint. They can, protect themselves by'simply paying fractionally iess for ail the cattie they buy which means the loss must be borne -as it should be by the producer. Our beef and dairy cattie specialists are goîng to be active in promoting warbie fly control but obviously, an effective promotionai campaign will also require your assistance. Further in- formation is contained in the Factsheet, "War on Warbies", and can be obtained by phoni ng your local agricul- tural office,.
