Promoting tick control in El Salvador
Ticks are a significant problem for cattle farmers in El Salvador. They can transmit diseases, produce discomfort to the animals and may even affect people. Due to the fact that in Central America cattle are mostly raised in extensive systems –grazing in the fields-, tick control may be challenging.
At the beginning of September we started a campaign to promote parasite control in El Salvador by raising awareness on its importance among the farmers.
The main activity of the campaign were a series of technical talks held in three different locations in the country. In total, around 200 people attended the seminars that were held in San Miguel, Santa Ana and Chalatenango. At the talks, the audience –veterinarians, farmers and pharmacy owners- could learn the advantages of parasite control as well as the need for it in order to achieve good productive results and maintain animal welfare.
We, at LIVISTO, are committed with our customers by bringing them updated information about our products and how and when to use them.
