Abstract

The article discusses the spread and measures of control of camel eimeriosis in the peasant farms of the Abai region, Kazakhstan.

The study covers 2160 camels, including juveniles and adults, using methods to differentiate eimeria species by oocysts.

Three main species of eimeria have been identified: E. dromedarii, E. cameli and E. noelleri, with a description of their morphological characteristics and sporulation periods.

As a result of the research, it was found that camel eimeriosis is found everywhere in the livestock farms of the Abai region.

To study the seasonal-age dynamics of camel infection with eimeria, 1080 camels of different ages were studied, 347 heads (12%) of them were infected with eimeria. The studies were carried out monthly in peasant farms of the Abay and Aksuat districts of the Abay region.

To determine the factors of infection of camels with eimeria, studies were carried out on the content of oocysts of eimeria in samples of manure from cages, feed residues from the floor and feeders, water from the watering place, and others.

In our work, we paid attention, first of all, to the following drugs: cocquimede and amidiostat, since they were first tested against camel eimeriosis.

The results of the study highlight the importance of raising farmers' awareness of methods for diagnosing and preventing eimeriosis, as well as the need to develop effective strategies to control the disease.

This will improve the conditions for keeping camels and increase the productivity of peasant farms in the region.
