Combatting animal diseases in Zimbabwe
By engaging farmers, technical staff, and public institutions in capacity building and awareness raising, the project enhanced the recognition, prevention and control of tick-borne diseases (TBDs) and transboundary animal diseases (TADs) among stakeholders. Cattle vaccines were procured and administered, and materials on animal diseases were produced in English and IsiNdebele and disseminated in target districts. Farmer and staff training activities on sampling of TADs, tick collection and identification, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and acaricideresistance testing were carried out, and the production of TBD vaccines was initiated.
