Abstract:

The present study was carried out in the Division of Veterinary Pathology, FVSC&AH, SKUAST-J R.S Pura, Jammu, to study the occurrence and mortality patterns associated with various pathological conditions in various parts of Jammu.200 flocks were surveyed in different areas in and around Jammu. Occurrence of colibacillosis (24.16%) was maximum followed by that of infectious bursal disease (IBD) (7.13%), omphalitis (6.79%), salmonellosis (5.36%). Other pathological or disease conditions found to be occurring in Jammu region were nonspecific enteritis (4.29%), coccidiosis (2.22%), haemorrhages in proven triculus (1.67%), gout (1.44%), nephro-hepatotoxicity (1.42%), ascites (1.14), fatty liver syndrome (1.03%), caseous nodules in lungs (0.75%) and non specific liver ailments (0.50%). The maximum mortality was caused by colibacillosis (8.33%) followed by IBD (5.97%), haemorrhages in proventriculus (5.52%), omphalitis (4.54%), salmonellosis (3.66%).Nonspecific enteritis (3.36%), nonspecific liver ailments (3.03%), hepatotoxicity (2.95%), caseous nodules in lungs (2.00%), coccidiosis (1.69%), ascites (1.12%), gout (0.77%) and fatty liver syndrome (0.41%) were other major pathological conditions and diseases associated with mortality. On the basis of pathomorphological studies, bacteriological studies and parasitological examination, occurrence of various pathological conditions in broiler in Jammu was determined.
