Cattle vaccination begins in Moga

Moga, September 24

The Animal Husbandry Department today initiated a drive to vaccinate cattle and buffalo calves to prevent brucellosis disease under the National Animal Disease Control Programme (NADCP), a flagship scheme launched by the Union Government.

The NADCP for Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) and brucellosis is a central sector scheme where 100 per cent funds are provided by the Union Government to states and union territories for vaccination. Around 29,000 cattle and buffalo calves will be vaccinated this year, which counts to just 10 per cent of the total population of animals in the district. — TNS
