Abstract
Bovine Viral Diarrhoea (BVD) and Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis (IBR) are the most prevalent viral diseases that cause abortion in cattle. There are many studies conducted in Turkey to show the occurrence of them. This paper aims to analyse these studies systematically. For this purpose, 11 suitable studies were selected from 1995-2014 to review. It was observed from those studies that the diseases were in high prevalence in Turkey, the prevalence of BVD and IBR ranged between 14 % - 81 % and 43 % -72 % respectively, and the animals had antibodies against both factors (1.13 odds ratio). The 1.13 odds ratio shows that BVD and IBR results are close to each other, but slightly tends to BVD. These two diseases have been eradicated in most of the developed countries but it is not notifiable in Turkey. Control schemes, therefore, should be considered by the competent authorities and universities. Awareness of these diseases should increase to prevent reproduction losses and develop livestock industry.
