Abstract

This compilation of research addresses pressing issues in livestock health across East Africa. Investigations cover the epidemiology of tick-borne diseases like East Coast fever (*Theileria parva*), efficacy of novel acaricide formulations against key tick vectors, and molecular characterization of protozoan parasites such as *Trypanosoma vivax* and *Babesia* species. The impact of climate change on tick distribution, control of bacterial infections like *Brucella abortus*, and management of helminthic infections (*Fasciola gigantica*) are also explored. Furthermore, the study examines the spatial epidemiology of viral diseases like BVDV, the challenge of anthelmintic resistance in nematodes, and the economic burden of trypanosomiasis. These findings collectively advocate for integrated and adaptive control strategies to enhance livestock productivity and sustainability.
