The governance of the recovery and resilience facility. The incremental innovation of standard conditionality regime

AbstractHow can we explain the system of governance underlying the conditionality regime of the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF)? Two contrasting instruments were adopted by the European Union to deal with the economic impact of the COVID‐19 crisis. The initial adaptation of the intergovernmental European stability mechanism was followed by the RRF, an instrument adopted as an add‐on to the EU budget and combining both supranational delegation and intergovernmental filters. Using the lenses of historical institutionalism, and a coalition‐based explanatory framework, this article examines the impact of past institutionalization patterns on the shift towards the RRF combined model. It argues that space for supranational delegation occurred as the result of the incremental innovation of the standard Community regime at work in EU budget‐related policies.

A comparative study of mono ethylene glycol economic production via different techniques

AbstractMono-ethylene glycol (MEG) is a high-volume chemical intermediate used as a raw material for a variety of chemical products. It could also be used as a hydrate inhibitor in natural gas. Recently, the importance of MEG has been increased due to its usage as a supporting emulsifier in diesel engines to reduce NOx and soot emissions, in addition to its usage as an additive to dual fuel diesel engines. The increase consumption of MEG in wide range of applications leads to the search for the most efficient, environmental friendly and cost effective technique to produce more quantities of it. MEG is most commonly manufactured via the hydration of ethylene oxide (EO). In this work, two different technologies of EO hydration to produce MEG are compared; the direct hydration of EO with water and the indirect hydration through the usage of ethylene carbonate (EC) as an intermediate. Comparative economic and environmental impact assessments were performed based on plant-scale simulations (per 600,000 tons per year of MEG produced) of the two hydration technologies using Aspen HYSYS version 11 simulation software. Economic analysis showed that the utilities’ energy consumption for direct hydration process is significantly higher than for indirect hydration by 279 megawatts. On the other hand, the environmental impact assessments showed that GHG emissions from natural gas power generation from utilities from direct hydration are three times greater than GHG emissions from indirect hydration. This leads to indirect hydration of ethylene oxide through ethylene carbonate formation being considered economically and environmentally preferable compared to the direct hydration process of ethylene oxide.

Assessing Geopolitical Risks and Their Economic Impact on the USA Using Data Analytics

Understanding geopolitical risks is a paramount aspect of examining the stability and resilience of national economies, specifically in today’s rapidly evolving global surroundings. Advanced analytics in the big data era open unparalleled avenues toward the quantification and comprehension of geopolitical risks on the performance of the economy of the United States. The prime objective of this study was to analyze the impact of geopolitical events on the U.S. economy, to identify key risk factors and their economic implications as well as propose strategies for mitigating adverse effects. Datasets used in this exploration were collected from different reliable sources to assess sources of geopolitical risk data and their economic impact on the U.S. First, data on geopolitical risk were collated from a combination of real-time news reports, government databases, and international organizations involved in monitoring geopolitical events. Key sources for this included GDELT news and sentiment data, official reports from U.S. government agencies such as the Department of State and the Department of Defense about foreign policy, conflict, and security, while major financial news outlets like Bloomberg and Reuters provided moment-by-moment coverage of events in the geopolitical sphere. We applied the Geo-Risk-Regressor model, a form of multimodal design to predict geopolitical threats arising from economic indicators, real-time news sentiment, and government reports on geopolitical events. The Geo-Risk-Regression Model is an integrated set of machine learning algorithms, from time-series and NLP to econometric regression, on structured and unstructured data comprising economic indicators, real-time news sentiment, and government reports on geopolitical events. A rigorous structured procedure was followed in implementing the Geo-Risk-Regressor to analyze the economic impact of geopolitical risks in the U.S. To assess and evaluate the performance of the algorithms, two key performance evaluation metrics were utilized MSE & R-squared. Among all the models, the best performance was that of XG-Boost; it had the lowest MSE and highest R². Thus, XG-Boost is the best model fitted for the prediction of GPRD_THREAT, probably because of its robust optimization and also its capability to capture a lot of complicated patterns in data. The geopolitical threat level perceived using the proposed models will enable business organizations in the USA to identify and manage risks that may affect the operations of the business organizations. Companies can, therefore, understand factors that contribute to risk and develop contingency plans, enabling them to take proactive measures to mitigate negative impacts from geopolitical events. Predictive models will help businesses in America estimate the potential risks to their supply chains and create strategies for mitigating any disruptions that might come through geopolitical events.

Pollution Haven Hypothesis and EKC Dynamics: Moderating Effect of FDI. A Study in Shanghai Cooperation Organization Countries

Abstract This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the nexus between economic growth and environmental degradation, with a specific focus on carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. It leverages a dataset spanning from 1991 to 2021, encompassing all 12 member nations of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO). The investigation includes a wide array of statistical examinations, such as stationarity tests, cross-section dependence, and co-integration analysis. The Johansen Fisher Panel co-integration test is employed to reveal long-term correlations between the variables. Furthermore, the paper adopts the Dumitrescu and Hurlin panel causality model, which accommodates variations in causal relationships across different countries. Additionally, the study analyses the asymmetric impact of GDP on carbon emissions across various quantiles using quantile regression. The findings of this research yield valuable insights, highlighting a significant positive correlation between GDP and CO2 emissions, suggesting that higher income levels are associated with greater pollution. However, the paper also illuminates more intricate scenarios, such as those characterized by inverted U-shaped and N-shaped Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) patterns, revealed through DOLS estimations. These estimations consider FDI, inflation, and industrialization as control variables. This research delves into the Pollution Haven Hypothesis and examines the interaction effects of FDI with other considered variables. These insights contribute to a deeper understanding of the complex dynamics between economic growth and environmental impact within the SCO member nations.

Empirical Study on the Promotion of Industrial Structure Upgrading by Aviation Economy: A Case Study of National Airport Economic Zones

With the rapid growth of civil aviation and economic integration, aviation economic zones centered on large airports have a significant economic impact on surrounding areas. These zones foster the concentration of technology, capital, and labor, leading to the emergence of new regional economic models. This research, based on data from 17 national-level aviation economic demonstration zones, develops an evaluation index system for aviation economic development and constructs a regression model incorporating industrial structure coefficients. It empirically analyzes the relationship between the development of aviation economy and the upgrading of industrial structure in cities with national-level aviation economic zones, revealing the aviation economy’s role in promoting industrial structure upgrading and providing policy recommendations for regional economic innovation.

Effects of PM2.5 exposure during high bushfire smoke days on birthweight and gestational age in Hunter New England, NSW, Australia. A study on pregnant people who smoke and don't smoke.

Australia's 2019/20 bushfire season was one of the most severe on record, from both land mass burned and the economic impact. This extreme weather season allowed the researchers to examine the effect of high PM2.5 exposure during high bushfire days on birthweight and gestational age. It is well known that bushfire smoke is harmful to human health. However, the impact this has on the developing fetus is not yet clear. 25,346 births were assessed, their exposure calculated based on location data, and outcomes analyzed. Mothers exposed to high PM2.5 (measured by a 24-hour average PM2.5 greater than 25µg/m3) demonstrated a significant birthweight reduction of 0.77g per day of exposure. Those who were also self-identified as having smoked at any time during their pregnancy were at higher risk, with a 1.33g reduction in birthweight per day of exposure. Gestational age was reduced by 0.01 days per day of exposure in the total cohort, with no significant difference demonstrated in those who smoked. The compounded effects of high PM2.5 exposure may result in birthweight reduction, with neonates born to mothers who smoked at increased risk.

The Prickly Pear, a shrub of real contribution to the livelihoods of farmers in in eastern dray land of Algeria

The study aims to assess the economic benefits and poverty impact of prickly pear fruit sales, focusing on commercial practices and the socio-economic status of participants. Data was gathered from 60 individuals across 32 locations through face-to-face surveys conducted from June to September 2023. The analysis, covering 20% of the regional actors, revealed that most participants were relatively young, with higher primary education levels and low university education (8.33%). Women involved were mostly divorced, and the majority of sellers were private farm owners, with others being forwarders and traders. Unemployment drove their engagement in this activity. The average income from prickly pear sales is 89.103 DZD, with net earnings of 60,000.00 DZD per trader, which increases with hours worked. Approximately 60 traders generate a total seasonal income of around 42,000.00 DZD, significantly benefiting local economies. Prickly pear trading offers crucial support to households, particularly during tough economic times, showcases its importance despite modest returns. The prickly pear trade in the region plays a vital role in supporting local households economically, especially during periods of financial instability. The trade offers both a source of income and an opportunity for independence, despite challenges associated with harvesting and market dynamics. The study concludes that prickly pear sales provide a sustainable income source with potential for growth, suggesting broader use of these crops for food, fodder, and energy in Algeria.

Economic Impact of Droughts in Southern Brazil, a Duration Analysis

Hydrometeorological hazards are currently a cause for great concern worldwide. Droughts are among the most recurrent events, causing significant losses. This article presents a study on the duration of droughts in the southernmost state of Brazil, which has a large agricultural sector and experiences frequent drought events. The approach focuses on the economic recovery time of municipalities affected by the drought in 2020, 2022 and 2023, using the total value of invoices issued within each municipality between companies and from companies to consumers. The Kaplan–Meier estimator and Cox regression models are applied, incorporating covariates such as the size of the municipality, geographic location, and primary economic activity sector. The results show that the longest recovery period is concentrated in small cities, particularly in those where agriculture or livestock is the primary economic activity. The greatest resilience is observed in cities within the metropolitan region, where economic activity is more concentrated in services and industry and where populations are generally larger. The study identifies that after each drought event, at least 75% of municipalities achieve economic recovery within 3 months. These findings support better planning for both drought prevention and impact reduction and they are relevant for the development of economic and social policies.

Global, Regional, and Country-Level Economic Impacts of Oral Conditions in 2019.

The recent World Health Organization (WHO) Oral Health Resolution and the subsequent WHO Global Oral Health Action Plan highlight the key relevance of providing information on the economic impacts of oral conditions. The purpose of this study was to provide updated estimates for the global, regional, and country-level economic impacts of oral conditions in 2019. Extending previously established methods, dental expenditures (costs for treatments) and productivity losses for 5 oral conditions (caries in deciduous and permanent teeth, periodontitis, edentulism, other oral diseases) were estimated for the year 2019. The estimated total worldwide economic impacts of oral conditions in 2019 were US $710B, of which US $387B (US $327B to US $404B) was due to direct costs and US $323B (US $186 to US $460) was due to productivity losses for the 5 main oral conditions. Low-income countries spent an average of US $0.52 (US $0.22 to US $0.96) per capita on dental care, while high-income countries spent an average of US $260 (US $257 to US $268) per capita-a 500-fold difference. These findings suggest that oral conditions continue to substantiate an enormous economic burden to individuals and society. The comprehensiveness of estimates supersedes that of previous work as the primary information on direct costs was identified for a larger number of countries. The need for more and better routine reporting and monitoring of the economic impact of oral conditions is emphasized. The relevance of such information is also highlighted by its inclusion in the first-ever WHO Global Oral Health Status Report and Global Strategy on Oral health 2023 to 2030. Given the persistently high economic burden of oral conditions, there is a key role for better prioritization of cost-efficient oral health programs as well as needs-responsive capacity planning.

A Systematic Review of the Costs of Drug-Associated Acute Kidney Injury and Potential Cost Savings with Nephrotoxin Stewardship Prevention Strategies.

There is a scarcity of information related to the financial impact of acute kidney injury (AKI), and even more so the economics of drug-associated AKI (D-AKI). Our goal was to provide a comprehensive summary of the economic burden of D-AKI by evaluating the costs of D-AKI compared to not developing AKI and cost savings associated with nephrotoxin stewardship approaches. Following the PRISMA guidelines, a literature search was conducted using PubMed to identify articles from database inception through November 2023. The main outcomes included AKI incidence, resource use, and cost of nephrotoxin stewardship programs/D-AKI event or no event. Key findings were summarized based on whether the study compared the cost of D-AKI vs. no AKI or identified potential cost savings associated with a nephrotoxin stewardship method to prevent D-AKI or worsening D-AKI. All costs were adjusted to USD2023. Twenty-five studies met the inclusion criteria. Eight studies compared the cost of D-AKI to no AKI. Total admission costs of patients who developed D-AKI ranged from $47,696 to $173,569. Nineteen studies implemented nephrotoxin stewardship with 12 substituting a less nephrotoxic drug; five using therapeutic drug monitoring and two altering drug dosing to limit exposure. Overall, these prevention strategies ranged from $5,171 to $364,973 in total medical cost savings and $17 to $942 in total cost savings per patient-day. The in-hospital economic impact of D-AKI is substantial. Implementing nephrotoxin stewardship strategies to reduce D-AKI is associated with cost savings. Institutions should adopt strategic and efficient nephrotoxin stewardship programs to optimize patient care and reduce costs.

A Comparative Analysis of Environmental and Social Practices in the Sugar Industries of Brazil and Southern Maharashtra, India

This paper reviews the worldwide sugar business, focusing on South Maharashtra in India and Brazil. The study employs a systematic approach to evaluate the environmental sustainability, as well as the social and economic impact of sugar production in these regions. Businesses are reassessing their tactics as people become more aware of social fairness and climate change, making the sugar industry an ideal subject for research due to its important environmental and social ramifications. While Brazil's sugar market has grown dramatically due to advances in farming methods and technologies, Southern Maharashtra continues to rely significantly on traditional agricultural practices, particularly sugar cultivation. The intent is to shed light on the contrasts between these industries by analyzing their environmental assessment methodologies, social responsibility efforts, and sustainable business practices. Furthermore, it attempts to add useful insights to the continuing discourse about promoting sustainable practices in the global sugar industry. The sugar industry has a lot of potential for growth due to its byproducts such as ethanol, biogas, and different agro-based products which further bolster the environmental sustainability potential.

Public health and economic impact of COVID-19 vaccination with the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, KP.2, among adults in 2024/2025 in the United States

ABSTRACT Objectives To assess the public health and economic impact of vaccination with the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, KP.2, in 2024/2025 in the United States. Methods A combined cohort Markov-decision tree model was used to estimate the cost-effectiveness and budget impact of vaccination versus no vaccination in adults aged ≥18 years. The adult population was further stratified into 18-64 years and ≥65 years age groups. Public health surveillance data informed the annual proportion of individuals infected with and vaccinated against SARS-CoV-2 and the proportion of those infected who were hospitalized, stratified by age. Other age-stratified clinical, cost, and vaccine effectiveness parameters were informed by literature. The budget impact analysis was based on a hypothetical 1-million-member plan and used a payer perspective. Parameter uncertainty was tested in sensitivity analyses. Results Without vaccination, the model projected 21.4 million new symptomatic cases, 15,793 deaths, 629,098 hospitalizations, $115.5 billion in total costs, and 1 million QALYs lost among adults aged ≥18 years, with the greatest health burden observed among older adults aged ≥65 years (72% of hospitalizations and 86% of deaths) and the greatest economic burden in adults aged 18 to 64 years (62% of total costs). Vaccination was projected to prevent 915,501 cases, 1,057 deaths, and 37,489 hospitalizations, resulting in cost savings of $513 million, 9,173 LYs gained, 56,482 QALYs gained, and a dominant ICER. In the budget impact analysis, vaccination was estimated to result in total incremental cost savings for the population aged ≥ 65 years and a modest budget increase for the population aged 18 to 64 years. Conclusions Vaccination with the Pfizer BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, KP.2, is a cost-effective measure from the societal perspective at a willingness-to-pay threshold of $50,000 that could reduce the health and economic burden of COVID-19.

Survey and molecular characterization of begomovirus, and assessment of yield losses caused by leaf curl disease of sunflower (Helianthus annuus)

A comprehensive survey was conducted during winter (rabi) and rainy (kharif) seasons of 2019–20 to 2021–22 in the Kurnool, Nandyal, and Prakasam districts of Andhra Pradesh, focusing on the incidence of leaf curl disease in hybrid sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) crop. The results revealed a high incidence of the disease, ranging from 40–94.5% across most of the surveyed hybrid varieties. Leaf curl-infected samples collected from the surveyed fields were analyzed by PCR using specific primers for the DNA-A component of the virus to confirm the presence of the pathogen. The PCR-amplified fragments were cloned and sequenced. Sequence analysis revealed that the sunflower isolate (Snf-AP) shared 99.2% nucleotide identity with the tomato leaf curl Karnataka virus (ToLCKV), which infects sunflower crops in Karnataka. This indicates a strong geographical and genetic connection between the viral strains affecting sunflowers in Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka. This genetic similarity is significant, as it suggests that the same or closely related viral strains are responsible for sunflower leaf curl disease across broader regions. The disease was found to affect sunflowers at all growth stages, with the highest incidence (42.3%) observed at the star bud stage. Infection at the star bud stage leads to substantial seed yield losses, with reductions of up to 82.8%. This level of damage underscores the economic impact of early infections, as yield losses of this magnitude can severely affect the profitability of sunflower farming. Additionally, a positive correlation was found between the whitefly population, weather parameters, and disease development.

Current vaccines, experimental immunization trials, and new perspectives to control selected vector borne blood parasites of veterinary importance

Parasite infections transmitted by vectors such as ticks and blood-sucking arthropods pose a significant threat to both human and animal health worldwide and have a substantial economic impact, particularly in the context of worsening environmental conditions. These infections can manifest in a variety of symptoms, including fever, anemia, jaundice, enlarged spleen, neurological disorders, and lymphatic issues, and can have varying mortality rates. In this review, we will focus on the current state of available vaccines, vaccine research approaches, and trials for diseases caused by vector-borne blood parasites, such as Babesia, Theileria, Anaplasma, and Trypanosoma, in farm animals. Control measures for these infections primarily rely on vector control, parasiticidal drug treatments, and vaccinations for disease prevention. However, many of these approaches have limitations, such as environmental concerns associated with the use of parasiticides, acaricides, and insecticides. Additionally, while some vaccines for blood parasites are already available, they still have several drawbacks, including practicality issues, unsuitability in non-endemic areas, and concerns about spreading other infectious agents, particularly in the case of live vaccines. This article highlights recent efforts to develop vaccines for controlling blood parasites in animals. The focus is on vaccine development approaches that show promise, including those based on recombinant antigens, vectored vaccines, and live attenuated or genetically modified parasites. Despite intensive research, developing effective subunit vaccines against blood stage parasites remains a challenge. By learning from previous vaccine development efforts and using emerging technologies to define immune mechanisms of protection, appropriate adjuvants, and protective antigens, we can expand our toolkit for controlling these burdensome diseases.

From Clinical to Non-clinical Outcomes in the Treatment of HIV: An Economic and Organizational Impact Assessment.

The aim of this study was to define the economic and organizational impacts related to a broader utilization of bictegravir/emtricitabine/alafenamide (BIC/FTC/TAF) in Italian clinical practice. A budget impact analysis-representing the evolution of the Italian National Healthcare Service (NHS) healthcare expenditure over 3years-was developed, considering the overall Italian population treated for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Model input variables were treatment history, therapeutic regimen, development of adverse events, achievement of an undetectable viral load and total direct healthcare costs. Besides the BIA, an organizational impact assessment was conducted to determine the impact on the use of healthcare resources, assessing the release of organizational hospital assets, focusing on the management of drug-related adverse events. Data were collected from scientific evidence, Italian national and regional legislations and healthcare professionals' reports. To verify the robustness of the economic and organizational impact assessment, sensitivity analyses were performed. Results demonstrate economic savings of about 26million euros in total health spending, assuming a higher penetration rate for BIC/FTC/TAF. This change in the current case mix would lead to a reduction in the specific costs related to adverse event management (0.9million euros; -2.09%) and in the medical management of patients (38million euros; -7.79%), with a positive impact on the achievement of virological control. From an organizational perspective, a wider use of BIC/FTC/TAF generates a reduction in the utilization of healthcare resources due to a decrease in adverse events and complications. The model estimated a 19.64% reduction in HIV-related inpatient days, which freed up healthcare professional time. Capable of improving both economic and organizational sustainability for the entire HIV care continuum, BIC/FTC/TAF is an efficient therapeutic strategy for people with HIV.

Economic Impact of Periphyton-Based Stunted Fingerling Production in Arunachal Pradesh, India

Non availability of right type quality seed at right time in required quantity is major bottleneck for the growth of aquaculture in Arunachal and major portion of seed are being import from other nearby state especially Assam in particular. To make availability of good quality seed at right time having a regional acclimation for a longer duration in far flung areas of the state, the present investigation was conducted on low cost Periphyton (grown on paddy straw) based stunted yearling production technology to improve the survival and health of stocked material and their economic impact on the fish farmers of district West Kameng during 2018-2021. The average values of pond water quality parameters were observed to vary between both the culture ponds with a significant seasonal differences at all the sites and there were found a greater difference in average survival rate of both the commodities i.e. table size fish as well as stunted yearling during whole culture period. The involved cost of cultivation was recorded higher Rs. 4,70,000 / ha in stunted yearling culture in comparison to Rs.424,940/ha in thetable size carp culture while average gross benefit was just opposite, recorded higher Rs. 6,90,000/ ha in stunted yearling culture in comparison to Rs.199,960/ ha in table size carp culture with the same trend in BCR i.e. 2.46 for stunted fingerling production and 1.47 in the production of table size fishes respectively.

The economic, social, and environmental impact of ecologically centered integrated pest management practices in East Africa

Agricultural pest management faces mounting challenges with increasing pressure to reduce chemical pesticide use while ensuring food security, and environmental sustainability. Ecologically centered approaches, such as integrated pest management (IPM), offer promising sustainable agroecological crop protection alternative solutions to pesticides. This study assesses the investment viability and environmental sustainability of two IPM interventions—mango fruit fly IPM (FF-IPM) and push-pull technology (PPT) in Kenya and Uganda, using project investment and adoption data from 2007 to 2021. The study also evaluates these technologies contribution to food security and poverty reduction. FF-IPM integrates biological control, cultural practices, and targeted bait traps to manage fruit flies in mango production, while PPT employs Desmodium and Brachiaria grass to control stemborers and striga weed. The findings highlight that these IPM interventions achieved a combined net present value of $500 million, with a benefit-cost ratio of about 8:1, and an internal rate of return of 21%, comparable to returns from improved crop varieties. These technologies also improved food security for 641,000 people, lifted 445,349 people above the poverty line, representing 2% of the poor population in both countries, and generated an average income increase of $5 per capita in Kenya and Uganda annually. Environmentally, they sequestered 2.7 million tons of CO2 equivalent, valued at $12.2 million, and are reducing pesticide use by 86,000 to 204,000 L per year. These results demonstrate the potential of IPM approaches to simultaneously enhance livelihoods, local economies, and generate global environmental public goods, suggesting that addressing adoption barriers could further amplify these positive outcomes.

Economic Sustainability Foraging Scenarios for Ruminant Meat Production—A Climate Change Adapting Alternative

Climate changes affect all agricultural production systems, directly or indirectly, including that of ruminant meat, through the limitation of forage resources sensitive to reduced water regimes and drought. The present paper assessed the economic sustainability of ruminant meat production in the context of climate change, with a particular focus on integrating bioeconomy principles through the use of drought-resistant crops such as sorghum and millet in livestock feed. This study included scenarios for two farm-level models, a sheep fattening farm and a cattle fattening farm, to determine the economic benefit and impact of integrating resilient crops in the total feed ration. The findings showed that the dry scenario system could offer economic and environmental advantages over traditional water-intensive crops like maize. The results demonstrated that replacing maize with sorghum or millet could result in a reduction in feed costs and enhanced economic benefit over the traditional feed system.

Assessing Post-Vaccination Seroprevalence and Enhancing Strategies for Lumpy Skin Disease Vaccination in Korean Cattle

Lumpy skin disease (LSD), caused by the LSD virus (LSDV), a dsDNA virus of the genus Capripoxvirus, represents a significant cross-border infectious threat, particularly impacting cattle and water buffaloes through transmission by blood-feeding insects. Traditionally endemic to Southern Africa, LSD has rapidly spread over the past decade through the Middle East to Eastern Europe and China, reaching Korea in October 2023. This outbreak prompted a nationwide vaccination campaign, addressing both the disease’s severe economic impact and its status as a notifiable disease under the World Organisation for Animal Health. This study assesses the seropositivity of the LSD vaccine in cattle across four Korean provinces 2–3 months post-vaccination, aiming to inform improvements in biosecurity and vaccination strategies. Overall, 30.59% of the cattle tested (1196 out of 3910) exhibited positive antibody responses, comparable to international post-vaccination findings. Analysis further revealed differences in the antibody positivity between farm types and management practices. Specifically, farms where vaccines were administered by veterinarians showed no significant difference in antibody positivity between Korean native cattle and dairy cattle, regardless of the presence of restraint facilities. However, on farms where vaccinations were conducted by the owners, dairy cattle demonstrated a higher seropositivity (43.30 ± 33.39%) compared to Korean native cattle (21.97 ± 20.79%) in the absence of restraint facilities. Further comparisons underscored the impact of restraint facilities on vaccination efficacy, with dairy farms generally achieving higher antibody positivity (29.43 ± 30.61%) than farms with Korean native cattle (23.02 ± 23.33%) (p < 0.05), suggesting that consistent vaccine delivery methods enhance immunogenic responses. Contrarily, no significant difference was noted in antibody positivity between large- and small-scale farms, indicating that farm size did not notably impact the effectiveness of the vaccinator. These findings emphasize that while current vaccines are sufficiently inducing immunity, enhancing vaccination strategies, particularly through trained personnel and improved restraint facilities, is crucial. This study’s insights into the impact of vaccination and farm management practices provide valuable guidance for refining LSD control measures in Korea and potentially other affected regions.
