Bangladesh's top livestock official wants farmers to vaccinate their animals against two deadly diseases. Farida Akhter spoke to district workers about stopping Foot and Mouth Disease and Lumpy Skin Disease from spreading. The diseases hurt cows and goats across the country. Farmers lose lots of money when their animals get sick. Akhter met with local officials at a milk factory meeting room.
The government adviser told workers they must start stronger vaccination drives right away. She warned that these diseases damage livestock badly. Farmers cannot afford to lose their animals to preventable sickness. Officials must work harder to protect cattle herds from getting infected. The vaccination program needs to reach every farm across two major districts.
Dr Abu Sufian from the livestock department joined the important meeting. He said Pabna and Sirajganj areas have many healthy farm animals. Workers should try to make both districts completely free from these harmful diseases. The government wants to announce victory over the livestock illnesses soon. Many other department heads attended the strategy session.
Akhter gave direct orders to field workers about their vaccination duties. She said nobody can make excuses about damaged animal skins from the diseases. Local veterinarians must cooperate fully with the new vaccination push. The livestock ministry expects maximum effort from all employees. Disease-free districts would boost farmer profits significantly.
