Abstract
ABSTRACT The present study surveyed that the prevalence of subclinical and clinical ketosis in cattle was assessed in and around Bikaner; a total of 200 cows after parturition were examined. The overall prevalence of clinical ketosis amongst post-parturient cows was 11.50%, while 23.50% for subclinical ketosis. Prevalence of clinical and subclinical ketosis in cows with relation to breed was the highest in Holstein Friesian crossbred cows (17.58%), while the lowest in Rathi cows (05%). Prevalence in relation to the age was the highest in 8–9 years of age (13.79% and 29.31%) and the lowest in >9 years of age (4.76% and 9.52%). Prevalence in relation to number of lactation/calving was the highest in fourth lactation (14.29% and 30.36%) and the lowest in first lactation (2.86% and 11.43%). Out of 11.50% cases of clinical ketosis, the highest prevalence was recorded (30.43%) during 8–14 days of lactation; similarly, out of 23.50% cases of subclinical ketosis, the highest prevalence was recorded (29.79%) during 8–14 days of lactation. Month-wise prevalence of clinical and subclinical ketosis was the highest in December that is 26.09% and 23.40%, while the lowest in August 4.35% and 2.13%.
