Determination of Papillomatous Digital Dermatitis (PDD) Prevalence in the U.S. Feedlot Industry through Practitioner Survey

Year: 2006

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Papillomatous digital dermatitis has been recognized and studied within the dairy industry for nearly 30 years. Published literature describing the incidence, risk factors, treatment and probable etiology within dairies is readily available. Far less information is available concerning papillomatous digital dermatitis and its effects on the US feedlot industry. Although papillomatous digital dermatitis is rarely reported in feedlot cattle, there have been at least three confirmed cases in feedlots in Kansas and Iowa.
