| Precautions |
Identifying the cause of diarrhoea in the herd will allow you to make a sound plan about how to prevent or minimise the effect. This can include reviewing rations, grazing plans, worm management and biosecurity practices. (Diarrhoea in adult cattle, https://www.agric.wa.gov.au/beef-cattle/diarrhoea-adult-cattle ) |
| Procedure of Use |
To cure diarrhoea one kilogramme leaves of assyrian plum (Cordia myxa) are crushed. One kilogramme of powdered sugar and one litre of water is added to it. This is then mixed well and the residue is then filtered with the help of a cloth. The affected animal is then fed with 250 millilitres of this filtrate twice a day for two days. The affected animal recovers completely from this treatment within 3 days. Nearly all the villagers of the village adopt the same method for treating diarrhoea in animals. Vohra has learnt this method from his forefather." |

| Global Context |
Calf diarrhea (also known as calf scouring) is a commonly reported disease and a major cause of economic loss to cattle producers. The 2007 National Animal Health Monitoring System (NAHMS) for U.S. dairy reported that 57% of weaning calf mortality was due to diarrhea and most cases occurred in calves less than 1 month old. A similar mortality rate (53.4%) for dairy calves due to calf diarrhea was recently reported in Korea. The economic loss associated with calf death in Norway where calf production is 280,000 heads per year was estimated to be approximately 10 million US dollars in 2006.( An overview of calf diarrhea - infectious etiology, diagnosis, and intervention, https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3973752/ ) |
