In Shymkent, veterinary activities are being carried out systematically to maintain the health of farm animals, prevent infectious diseases, and improve the well-being of the population. As an example, specialists from the Shymkent branch of the Veterinary Service MCC conducted regular preventive and diagnostic work in the Badam settlement of Enbekshy district.

The main goal of the measures taken was to prevent the spread of highly dangerous infectious diseases among farm animals, to identify outbreaks of disease early, and to implement timely treatment and prevention. In addition, the main focus was on increasing the veterinary culture of livestock owners and explaining the importance of observing sanitary requirements.

During the event, specialists conducted a thorough examination of cattle, sheep, goats, and other domestic animals.

• The animals were vaccinated with the necessary vaccines;

• The general condition, body temperature, and weight of the animals were monitored;

• If necessary, blood and other samples were taken and sent to the laboratory.

First of all, special vaccinations were carried out to protect animals from dangerous diseases such as anthrax, brucellosis, rabies, and foot-and-mouth disease. These vaccinations are the most effective means of preventing diseases that are widespread in agriculture and also pose a threat to human health.

Veterinary specialists not only vaccinated, but also conducted extensive educational work with villagers.

• The hygienic requirements for animal care were explained;

• It was stated that special attention should be paid to the cleanliness of livestock pens;

• The benefits of timely vaccination and veterinary examinations of animals were outlined.

Experts say that in many cases, livestock owners ignore the first signs of the disease and seek help only when their animals are in serious condition. This situation leads to the spread of the disease and increased losses. Therefore, preventive measures are the best solution.

For residents of Enbekshy district, livestock farming is the main source of livelihood. Not only milk and meat products, but also the income from it is an important part of the family economy. Therefore, maintaining the health of animals has a direct impact on the social situation of the villagers.

For example, if a dangerous disease such as brucellosis is detected in a household, the entire livestock will have to be destroyed. This will lead to huge material losses. However, timely vaccination can prevent such a disaster.

The effective implementation of these measures is supported by the state. Vaccines are allocated from the republican budget, and local veterinary service specialists ensure their correct and timely use.

Local residents noted that these works are carried out free of charge and expressed their gratitude for the professional work of specialists, since timely preventive measures reduce subsequent losses several times.

These measures, which began in the village of Badam, will be gradually extended to other villages and small settlements of the Enbekshy district in the future.

• All farm animals are counted;

• Control over the movement and sale of animals will be strengthened;

• Additional measures will be taken to improve sanitary conditions.

In addition, in the future, it is planned to digitize the process of registering and monitoring the health of livestock. This will allow for accurate monitoring of the condition of each animal, timely vaccination, and rapid containment of the spread of the disease.

The veterinary events held in the Badam settlement received great support from the villagers. Residents highly appreciated the professional assistance provided by specialists to the animals and supplemented their knowledge through educational activities.

These measures will not only improve animal health, but also improve the quality of life of the population as a whole. After all, a strong agriculture is the key to a stable economy and food security.

Thus, the veterinary preventive and diagnostic measures being implemented in the Enbekshy district are important not only for one district, but for the entire city population. As a result of these works, the agriculture of Shymkent city will develop steadily, and the health and well-being of the population will improve.
