Description
Fika Yuliza Purba leads a survey of hidden disease among Enrekang Regency's smallholder dairy herds in South Sulawesi, a dairy centre in eastern Indonesia. Ninety-four cattle on twenty-nine farms were checked in July 2025 for udder infection without symptoms, gut parasites, and two infections that can pass to people, tuberculosis and brucellosis. Milk quarters, blood, and dung samples fed the different tests.
Every blood test for the two feared zoonoses came back negative, which is welcome news for farm families. The everyday burden looked heavy instead: three quarters of milking cows carried silent udder infection, three quarters of cattle carried gut parasites, and over half the milking cows carried both at once. Streptococcus and Staphylococcus germs led the udder findings. The authors urge routine udder and parasite control as the fastest route to better yields.
