About This Book

A practical handbook for farm owners and stockmen, presenting basic anatomy and physiology, methods to examine animals for soundness and age, and step-by-step approaches to wounds, fractures, and post-mortem inspection. It explains common medicines, principles of diagnosis, and preventive management including ventilation, feeding, and hygiene. Detailed chapters survey contagious and noncontagious diseases of horses, cattle, pigs, sheep and poultry, parasites, and reproductive problems, illustrated with plates and diagrams. Emphasis is placed on recognizing early signs, simple on-farm treatments, and knowing when to call professional veterinary aid.
