| Summary |
The purpose of the study was to investigate the important diseases in geese and ducks. Totals of 164 cases were collected during the investigation period. The important diseases in ducks were identified from 95 cases including infectious serositis, fowl cholera and duck viral hepatitis. The cases of Vitamin E deficiency and illness with unknown reason were also commonly found in ducks. Some of the important diseases in geese, including infectious serositis, fowl cholera and goose viral enteritis were observed from 68 cases. The results indicated that good hygiene and management condition had played vital role in the prevention of waterfowl diseases. Therefore, in addition to the epidemiology, morphology and microbiology, it would be necessary to fully understand the management in various raising stages for the accurate diagnosis and medication.
