dc.description.abstractMilk fever is an economically most important metabolic disease occurring in dairy animals during parturient period, as it results in not only reduction in milk production but also loss of animals and is becoming increasingly important at both farm and national levels. For the study, 83 milk fever affected dairy animals were selected through simple random sampling technique from Namakkal and Karur districts of Tamil Nadu. Data were collected from the respondent farmers through personal interviews, using pretested interview schedule. The loss due to milk fever per affected cow was estimated to be Rs.802.60. The loss due to milk fever in buffaloes was estimated to be Rs.871.19. It could be extrapolated that the total economic loss in the State due to milk fever would be Rs.33.60 crores and Rs.3.75 crores in cows and buffaloes respectively.en_US
