dc.description.abstractNewcastle disease (ND) is an endemic, highly contagious and fatal virus disease of poultry which causes significant economic losses in India. Despite Newcastle disease vaccination the farmers frequently faces disease outbreaks. This paper describes diagnosis and control of Newcastle disease in desi chicken. Twelve cases of Newcastle disease outbreak were recorded in desi chicken farms in Tirupur District, Tamil Nadu. The disease was confirmed by heamagglutination inhibition test using known positive serum and was identified as virulent Newcastle disease virus (NDV) by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction for fusion protein cleavage site of the virus. The affected birds were treated with ethno veterinary herbal medicine recommended by the Ethno Veterinary Herbal Research Centre for Poultry, Namakkal. Birds affected with Newcastle disease were treated orally with a ground mixture of Phyllanthus amarus, Cuminum cyminum seeds and Allium cepa pulp along with jaggery thrice a day for five days. Along with the above the birds were given water containing Cuminum cyminum-10g/liter for five days. Following the herbal treatment, all the affected birds recovered completely from Newcastle disease within 3-5 days. These findings showed that the ethno veterinary practices play an important role in the control of economically important poultry diseases in country chicken.en_US
