Structure of the bird morbidity in industrial goose breeding

The article presents the results of studying the structure of poultry morbidity in industrial goose-breeding enterprises: LLC "Poultry farm Kimovskaya" of the Republic of Mari El, LLC "Vurnarets" and OJSC "Brood poultry farm" Urmarskaya "of the Chuvash Republic. All three goose-breeding enterprises during the analyzed period of time were epizootologi-cally safe farms for infectious and invasive poultry diseases. It has been shown that the largest percentage of diseases of non-infectious etiology in geese are metabolic diseases - up to 94.6 % and of the digestive system - up to 63.3 %, a high proportion of diseases of the egg production system - up to 40.2 %, which is due to the absence of veterinary treatment of poultry preventive measures against these diseases, and the low level of avitaminosis is explained by the active use of vitamin preparations in poultry farms. Most of the diseases occur in young animals: from 76.6 to 97.0 %, among broodstock the incidence in different years ranged from 3 to 23.4 %. Adjustment of therapeutic and prophylactic treatment schemes for poultry, introduction of modern veterinary drugs can significantly reduce the incidence of non-communicable diseases in geese.
