| National Animal Disease Control Programme (FMD) Phase-II launched | | |  Early Times Report
JAMMU, Nov 8: The Department of Animal Husbandry Jammu today officially launched the second phase of the prestigious central sector scheme, National Animal Disease Control Programme for Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) in livestock, here at the Directorate complex, Talab Tillo Jammu. The programme aims at vaccinating entire eligible cattle and buffalo population against the Foot and Mouth Disease in all the districts of the Jammu province.
Speaking on the occasion Dr Matloob Ahmad Tak, Chief Executive Officer Livestock Development Board, Jammu urged the farmers to take full benefits of the programme and vaccinate their livestock against Foot and Mouth Disease as the disease is a serious impediment in the overall growth of the livestock sector and the economic losses inflicted by the disease upon the dairy farmers are humongous.
Earlier, the programme was launched with flagging off the vehicles containing FMD vaccines from the Directorate complex in the presence of Officers and staff of the Animal Husbandry Department Jammu.
Similar events marking the launch of the vaccination programme were held across all the districts of Jammu province.
It is pertinent to mention here that the National Animal Disease Control Programme was launched by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi on September 11, 2019 and envisages control of FMD and Brucellosis diseases in livestock by 2025 and their complete eradication by 2030. |
