Abstract

The dynamics of the bovine babesiosis prevalence has been studied in conditions of various ecosystems. In spring, summer and autumn animals of different age groups over 6 months old have been investigated. It has turned out that the spread of the disease is particularly promoted by the ticks of Rhipicephalus genus propagated in favorable climatic conditions, which produce up to 4 generations in individual geographic zones of the Tavush region and cause huge economic damages. Thus, the development of scientifically justified complex therapeutic and preventive measures against the disease pathogens and pasture ticks is a priority issue.
