TB Statistics
As of 30th March 2025, 41,780 reactors have been identified and 6,243 herds were restricted on a 12-month rolling basis. As of 30th March, herd incidence is 6.18%.
We can help decrease the levels of bovine TB by reducing the risk of TB entering our herds. To learn more about reducing the risk of TB please see our videos and leaflets at the link below.

Expenditure
Expenditure at the end of Q1 2025 is €26.4m. On farm market valuation (OFMV) has increased 19% when compared to Q1 2024. This continued increase year on year in OFMV is due to strong market values and the rise in the number reactors. OFMV is the main contributor to the increase in TB programme expenditure over the last three years.
