An average of 840 East African Zebu cattle from nine herds in the Ghibe Valley, southwest Ethiopia were monitored from 1986 to 1990. Each month blood samples were collected from analysis of packed red cell volume and detection of trypanosomes. Animals were found to be parasitaemic and with a PCV ...

Approximately 320 East African Zebu cows over 36 months of age were monitored monthly from 1986 to 1992 in nine village herds in an area of high trypanosomiasis risk in southwest Ethiopia where there was resistance to all available trypanocidal drugs. Cows were individually treated with diminazen...

Nine hundred and thirty-six East African Zebu village calves in an area of high trypanosomiasis risk in south-western Ethiopia were monitored monthly with their dams from birth to 3 years of age. Mean packed red cell volume (PCV) and the frequency of detected parasitaemia were calculated for each...

Ten farmers on Rusinga Island, Lake Victoria, Kenya were selected to study the epidemiology of tick-borne diseases (TBDs) and their possible effects on calf performance. During the years 1986-1988 a total of 162 calves were ear-tagged, weighed monthly and monitored closely for TBDs and endoparasi...

East Coast fever (ECF), caused by Theileria parva, is the most important tick-borne disease of cattle in much of eastern, central and southern Africa. In Kenya, immunization against ECF has been performed in many field trials using the infection and treatment method. The main targets for immuniza...
