Abstract
Disinfection of animal shed means making
them free from disease producing organisms. An
attempt has been made to assess the efficacy of
cow urine – herbal preparation. The study was
carried out in three different seasons of the year
in pig fattener facilities, farrowing pen and dairy
units in an organised farm. Cow urine was used
as a base material in this case. The efficacy of the
disinfection was found out by dilution method.
The action of cow urine based preparation was
highly significant (P<0.01) in all livestock sheds.
The seasonal effect of the disinfectant may be
due to the influence of temperature, humidity
(both absolute and relative), sunlight exposure
and even atmospheric pollutants.
