This clinical study was undertaken at the sadar Upazilla Livestock Office, Gopalgonj, Bangladesh to determine the general clinical prevalence of clinical diseases and disorders in cattle and goats during the study period from September to December 2016. Total animals were 105, among them cattle were 60 and goats were 45. Diagnosis was performed on the basis of general examination, physical examination and clinical examination. Clinical examinations were detected 60 (48.38% of total animals) different types of diseases and disorders in cattle. Whereas fever 3, anorexia 5, bloat 2, dysentery 3, diarrhoea 4, fascioliasis 2, myiasis 5, FMD 2, papillomatosis 2, ephemeral fever 3, pneumonia 5, mastitis 4, black quarter 1 were recorded. Age wise occurrence in young and adult cattle were 35 (58.33%) & 25 (41.66%) respectively. In goat 45 (36.29% of total animal) different types of diseases and disorders were found. Whereas fever 4, anorexia 4, bloat 1, dysentery 2, diarrhoea 3, corneal opacity 2, mange 3, myiasis 4, PPR 10, pneumonia 8, tetanus 1, mastitis 3 were recorded. Age wise occurrence in young and adult goat were 20 (44.44%) and 15 (33.33%) respectively. Diseases and disorders of cattle and goats which were recorded more or less present in both young and adult animals but some of the specific diseases and disorders were in animals due to age susceptibility such as black quarter in young cattle and PPR in goat. From this study it can be said that proper vaccination, treatment and management should be given to minimize the diseases and disorders of cattle and goat.

Selection of buck is the starting point in goat development program.The aim of this study was to select of indigenous breeding buck at the Coastal areas of Bangladesh. A total of 20 bucks were examined and evaluated for the breeding efficiency considering the different factors such as pedigree, age, body weight, libido, hoof conformation, scrotal texture and circumference, no return rate etc. Out of these 20 bucks, 10 bucks were selected on the basis of scrotal circumference (SC) >18cm. Then these 10 bucks were under taking for checking their fertility through calculating the non-return rate (NRR).

A study was conducted at Babugonj upazilla under the district of Barishal in Bangladesh during the period from 1st December, 2020 to 29th April, 2021. To determine the prevalence and therapeutic efficiency of Peste des Petits Ruminants in goat. A total number of 523 diseases cases were recorded randomly irrespective of age ,sex ,and breed over the study period, among them 118 case were clinically diagnosed as Peste des Petits Ruminants. The overall prevalence of Peste des Petits Ruminants in goat was 22.56%. Diarrhoea, dyspnea, oculonasal discharge, rough hair coat, dullness, depression, and erosion on the lip were the common findings during clinical examination of Peste des Petits Ruminants patients. The prevalence of Peste des Petits Ruminants in different age group upto 4 month, 5-8 month,9-12 month, Above 12 month were 11.02%, 31.36%, 33.90% and. 23.73% respectively. Female are more susceptible (76.27%) than male (23.72%). Black bengal goats were more susceptible (69.49%) than Jamunapari (30.50%). Peste des Petits Ruminants causes higher mortality and heavy economic losses in every year which may be reduced substantially by proper vaccination and other manage mental approaches.
