Incorporating heterogeneity in farmer disease control behaviour into a livestock disease transmission model (2023)
Journal Article

Human behaviour is critical to effective responses to livestock disease outbreaks, especially with respect to vaccination uptake. Traditionally, mathematical models used to inform this behaviour have not taken heterogeneity in farmer behaviour into a...

Descriptive analysis of national bovine viral diarrhoea test data in England (2016–2020) (2022)
Journal Article

Background: Bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) causes substantial economic losses to the cattle industry; however, control and eradication can be achieved by identifying and removing persistently infected cattle from the herd. Each UK nation has sep... Read More about Descriptive analysis of national bovine viral diarrhoea test data in England (2016–2020).

Modelling livestock infectious disease control policy under differing social perspectives on vaccination behaviour (2022)
Journal Article

The spread of infection amongst livestock depends not only on the traits of the pathogen and the livestock themselves, but also on the veterinary health behaviours of farmers and how this impacts their implementation of disease control measures. Cont... Read More about Modelling livestock infectious disease control policy under differing social perspectives on vaccination behaviour.

Cattle farmer psychosocial profiles and their association with control strategies for bovine viral diarrhea (2022)
Journal Article

Bovine viral diarrhea (BVD) is endemic in the United Kingdom and causes major economic losses. Control is largely voluntary for individual farmers and is likely to be influenced by psychosocial factors, such as altruism, trust, and psychological prox...

Impact of Strain Variation of Dichelobacter nodosus on Disease Severity and Presence in Sheep Flocks in England (2021)
Journal Article

Increase in the flock prevalence of lameness in ewes is associated with a reduction in farmers using evidence-based management of prompt treatment: A longitudinal observational study of 154 English sheep flocks 2013–2015 (2019)
Journal Article

© 2019 The Authors Since 2006, farmers in England have received new recommendations on best practice to manage lameness in sheep through a range of knowledge exchange activities. The adoption of each recommendation varied, but in 2013 approximately 5...

Footbathing, formalin and foot trimming: The 3Fs associated with granulomas and shelly hoof in sheep (2019)
Journal Article

Granulomas and shelly hoof (SH), are lesions of sheep feet. Our objective was to use data from four questionnaires on lameness sent to English sheep farmers in 2004, 2013, 2014 and 2015 to further understanding of the risks and aetiologies of both le...

Journal Article

© The Author(s) 2016. Background The Bornean banteng (Bos javanicus lowi) is an endangered subspecies that often inhabits logged forest; however very little is known about the effects of logging on their ecology, despite the differing effects this ha...
