Economics of CBPP control in Kenya Dr Joshua Onono A presentation made at Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, Nigeria: 3rd/ April/2014
Outline • Introduction • Economic analysis framework • Partial budget • Decision tree • Impact assessment • Policy analysis framework • Conclusion
Introduction • CBPP is an infectious disease of cattle which has a huge impact on the society. • CBPP is caused by Mycoplasma mycoides subspecies mycoides Small Colony variant(MmmSC). • The organism produces natural infection in cattle and water buffaloes (Bubalu babulus), but not in wild buffaloes (Syncerus caffer). • CBPP is widespread in Africa and it is recognized to be present in some countries of Asia and Europe.
Introduction • In Africa, it is found in an area south of the Sahara, from the Tropic of Cancer to Tropic of Capricorn and from Atlantic to the Indian Ocean. • Endemic infection extends throughout the pastoral herds of much of western, central and eastern Africa, with Angola and northern Namibia in southern Africa.

Conclusions • Slaughter of clinical cases of CBPP is not beneficial to pastoralists • Treatment of clinical cases, annual vaccination and a combination of these two strategies have benefits to pastoralists • Vaccination services against CBPP can be delivered through signed contractual agreements between private and public veterinary departments
