Resumo
Esse trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar, em um rebanho com presença de animais com sinais clínicos da enfermidade, a aplicabilidade e eficácia das medidas de controle para a atrite-encefalite caprina e perdas produtivas associadas. Os animais foram testados sorologicamente e algumas medidas de controle foram instituídas, entre elas: segregação dos rebanhos (positivo e negativo), retirada dos cabritos ao nascimento, aleitamento dos neonatos com colostro/leite de vaca ou de cabra tratados termicamente, linha de ordenha e manejo reprodutivo de acordo com status sorológico e descarte orientado de animais reagentes. Dados produtivos tais quais produção de leite, taxa de prenhez, peso dos animais adultos e crias, taxa de morbidade, mortalidade e descarte foram avaliados. Os custos relacionados à implantação do programa e perdas associadas à produtividade também foram analisados. A soroprevalência da doença decresceu a partir da segunda sorologia, atingindo a menor taxa na quarta sorologia (40,54%) e voltando a aumentar no final do estudo (50,72%). Animais soropositivos e com duas lactações produziram 0,26 litros a menos de leite diariamente quando comparados aos animais soronegativos. O peso das crias ao nascimento também foi menor em animais que provinham de mães sororeagentes. Conclui-se que as medidas de controle são aplicáveis em rebanhos comerciais, entretanto possuem sérias implicações quanto a sua eficácia em rebanhos com soroprevalência intermediária e alta, contribuindo pouco para a redução de novos casos. O impacto produtivo refletiu-se, principalmente, na produção de leite e o custo para implantação do programa de controle foi elevado.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the application and efficacy of control measures for caprine arthritis encephalitis and associated productive losses in a herd with the presence of animals with clinical signs of the disease. The animals were tested serologically and some control measures were instituted, including: segregation of herds (positive and negative), removal of goats at birth, suckling of newborns with colostrum / cow's milk or thermally treated goat's milk, management line and reproductive management according to serological status and discarded oriented of reactive animals. Productive data such pregnancy rate, adult and calf weight, mortality rate, mortality and discards. Costs related to program implementation and losses associated with productivity were also analyzed. The seroprevalence of the disease decreased after the second serology, with a lower rate in the fourth serology (40.54%) and increasing again at the end of the study (50.72%). Seropositive animals with two lactations produced 0.26 liters less milk daily when compared to seronegative animals. The weight of the offspring at birth was also lower in animals that came from mothers who were seroreagentes. It is concluded that control measures are approached, such as their efficacy in herds with intermediate and high seroprevalence, contributing little to a reduction of new cases. The productive impact was mainly reflected in milk production and in the cost to implement the high-level control program
