Lumpy skin disease: how to protect farmers and stop the spread

This video aims to raise the knowledge of farmers and relevant stakeholders on lumpy skin disease (LSD) and how to reduce its spread and transmission in Cambodia.

LSD is one of the World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH) notifiable diseases that occurred in 1929 in Africa. Since then, the disease has widespread to other regions of the world, including Asia. LSD causes a low mortality rate, but it causes economic loss for farmers in terms of animal welfare and trade barrier.
