Both footrot and contagious ovine digital dermatitis (CODD) can cause extensive damage to the feet of affected sheep, and cause both suffering and financial losses. The aim of the proposed one-year project is to gain new knowledge about these two infectious feet diseases and their respective disease causing agents, Dichelobacter nodosus and Treponema species. This is knowledge which is lacking today and which is crucial in order to be able to develop effective control strategies for the two diseases in the future. An international workshop is planned at the end of the project where we plan to present the obtained data to the reference group and to our international collaborators to put together a road map for national control strategies. In the long term, the project contributes to healthier sheep without footrot and CODD, which promotes profitability of the production and increases animal welfare.
Både fotröta och smittsam digital dermatit (CODD) kan ge omfattande skador på klövarna hos drabbade djur och orsakar både lidande och ekonomiska förluster. Det ettåriga projektets mål är att få ny kunskap om dessa två smittsamma klövsjukdomar och deras respektive sjukdomsframkallande agens; Dichelobacter nodosus och Treponema species. Detta är kunskap som saknas idag och som är avgörande för att kunna ta fram effektiva kontrollstrategier för de två sjukdomarna i framtiden. En internationell workshop planeras i slutet av projektet där vi planerar att presentera erhållna data för referensgruppen och för våra internationella samarbetspartners för att sätta ihop en färdplan för nationella kontrollstrategier. På lång sikt bidrar projektet till friskare får utan fotröta och smittsam digital dermatit vilket gynnar lönsamheten i produktionen och ger en ökad djurvälfärd.

Mixed leys are among the most important crops in northern Sweden for the dairy production. Mapping the within and between fields variability of the biomass, nitrogen (N) uptake and potentially also forage quality (digestibility and neutral detergent fibre) would help farmers to optimise their …

During the last decade, neonatal porcine diarrhoea (NPD) has become an increased problem in Swedish herds. Clostridium (C.) perfringens type A (CpA) and C. difficile (Cd) have been highlighted as causes of NPD but their importance has also been questioned. We have previously demonstrated that CpA …

Flea beetles are serious insect pests in spring oilseed rape. After neonicotinoid seed treatments were restricted, no effective chemical control methods are currently available for flea beetle control. Crop protection has therefore become a serious limiting factor for growing the crop. In an …

In nature, piglets are exposed to a wide range of bacteria that promote a balanced (healthy) gut microbiota. On the farm, routine cleaning can limit exposure to beneficial bacteria leading to an unbalanced gut microbiota. An unbalanced gut microbiota increases the risk of health problems and alters …

Weather, together with fertilization, soil and genotype are the main inputs defining crop performance. Malting barley is especially susceptible to adverse climate conditions because its performance is accounted not only in terms of production, but also quality, notably grain protein …

The antibody quality of the colostrum is essential for the newborn calf, as the calf is totally dependent on the passive transfer of colostral antibodies during the first 24 hours of life to keep healthy and survive until weaning. A high proportion of the cows have insufficient antibodies in the …
