摘要

A 'Best Practice' pilot leaflet to minimise footrot (FR) was drawn up and sent to farmers. Farmers were asked whether they would adopt the recommendations. Approximately 90% of farmers replied that they would adopt some of the recommendations. In 2003a follow up study was conducted and these farmers were asked to estimate the level of footrot in their flock in 2002, what treatment and control methods they were using and when they first started these practices. Approximately 80% of farmers had been using the same control practices for at least five years. Those that routinely trimmed their sheep's feet reported a high prevalence of FR in 2002 and a dose response of more trimmings related to a higher prevalence of FR was still present. Individual treatment was still highly successful. From 2002-3 a cohort study monitored FR levels together with individual and flock control practices on 7 farms through visits and farmer data collection. Analysis of one of these farms where individual records were collected indicated that certain sheep and feet were more prone to footrot. Sheep that had had interdigital dermatitis were four times as likely to present with FR 1-2 months later. A binomial mixed effect model with presence of footrot or ID as the dependent variable indicated that the amount of FR and ID in the flock in the previous 4 and 6 weeks influenced the occurrence of FR and ID at any time interval. Routine foot trimming significantly increased the risk of FR and ID and treatment (parenteral antibiotic injection together with foot trimming) reduced the risk of FR and ID four weeks later. Trimming diseased feet without parenteral antibiotic increased the risk of FR/ID four weeks later. It was concluded that FR / ID are infectious diseases and thatmanagement must take this into account. Individual treatment of diseased sheep is recommended to control FR in the whole flock. Routine foot trimming should be avoided.
