    abstract = {A study was conducted on 400 goats in Luna Export Abattoir 
  originated from district area of Borena
  range land (i.e., Yabello and Negella) from November 2008 to April 2009 to estimate 
  the prevalence of caseous
  lymphadenitis in goats. Detail post mortem examination and bacteriology were 
  applied to undertake this study.
  On the bases of post mortem and bacteriological results; the prevalence of Caseous 
  Lymphadenitis was
  15% (60/400). Out of which 42 (70%), 13 (21.7%) and 5 (8.3%) were cutaneous, 
  visceral and generalized form,
  respectively. There is statistical significance difference (p<0.05) among 
  the three age groups. The study
  revealed that as age increases the prevalence increases. Statistical significant 
  difference was also recorded
  between goats having poor and good body condition score (p<0.05). Moreover, 
  goats with poor body
  condition score seem to be more infected (24.7%) than those goats with good 
  body condition (12.5%). In
  conclusion, this study has indicated that CLA is prevalent in goats of Borena 
  range land. Therefore, further
  extensive research should be conducted over all the country to determine prevalence 
  and economic significance
  of the disease.}
