Abstract

In a 2 years period, the importance of Maedi-Visna (MV) as a cause of culling has been assessed in two Assaf dairy flocks, with a seroprevalence higher than 75%. A 61.9% and 76.6% of culled sheep, in each flock, were eliminated due to MV. Differences in the clinical forms were seen between the flocks, with predominance of the respiratory or nervous form respectively. A decrease in the seroprevalence and the percentage of sheep showing severe lesions in the second year, were also observed.
