Abstract

A cross-sectional study was conducted to determine the abattoir prevalence of bovine fasciolosis and its economic importance in Robe Municipal Abattoir. A total of 502 cattle were randomly sampled and examined after slaughter. Out of 502 cattle examined at post mortem, 68.72% (345) were positive for fasciolosis. The prevalence of bovine fasciolosis was found to be significantly affected (P < 0.05) by the age of animal, in which young animals were affected than adult animals. The prevalence of bovine fasciolosis was also higher (P 0.05) affecting the prevalence of disease. The prevalence of Fasciola hepatica was 238(68.98%) which was predominant among Fasciola species, causing bovine fasciolosis in the study areas. Whereas, the prevalence of Fasciola gigantica was 107 (31.02%). The economic significance of bovine fasciolosis was also assessed based on condemned livers. Thus, based on retail value of bovine liver, the direct economic loss from fasciolosis during the study time was estimated to be 164,880 ETBannually.
