Estimation of economic impacts due to hydatidosis among livestok in Kermanshah Province, western Iran

Abstract

Information about inspection of slaughtered animals is a basic approach to review the epidemiological pattern of infectious diseases. Therefore, this study was aimed to determine the prevalence of hydatidosis as well as estimate of relevant economic losses in livestock slaughtered in Kermanshah Province, western Iran, throughout the years 2010–2015. A total of 539,861 livestock examined; 12,413 (2.29%) were infected with hydatidosis. Overall, 4713 (3.21%) of cattle, 6720 (1.97%) of sheep, and 980 (1.86%) of goats were found to be infected with hydatidosis. The total economic loss was USD 457,582. The direct economic loss in cattle was USD 134,164, in sheep USD 53,908, and in goats USD 7407. Furthermore, the indirect economic loss in cattle, sheep, and goats was USD 220,211, USD 41,197, and USD 695, respectively. Targeted investigations on the prevalence of this disease, especially in endemic areas, as well as continuous and regular actions such as the training of those who deal with livestock, the sanitary condemnation of infected organs, the reduction of stray dog population, and the grazing of livestock on safe pasture can provide a clear horizon for an appropriate solution to minimize the infected cases and prevent huge economic losses due to hydatidosis.
