Abstract

10 herd-level cross-sectional studies were conducted in peri-urban dairy production areas of 7 West and Central African countries (Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameroon, Mali, Niger, Senegal and Togo). The objectives were to estimate herd level Brucella spp. seroprevalence and identify risk factors for seropositivity.

This is a publication arising from the Zoonoses and Emerging Livestock Systems (ZELS) programme.
