Abstract:
This observational study highlights the apparent lower severity of footrot in goats compared with sheep, the risk of false negative results from elastase tests, the need to clean contractors' equipment between properties and indicates the potential use of kidding (or lambing) time and individual mob biosecurity in managing footrot.
