The level of bovine TB has been rising since 2018. The overall steady increase in herd incidence since then highlights the continued need for urgent action by all stakeholders.
The total number of reactors removed in the last 12 months to the end of Q3 2024 has risen to 37,964 from 25,916. Herd incidence has increased to 5.62% from 4.73% during the same period.
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 at the end of Q3 2024 is €66.2m. On farm market valuation (OFMV) has increased 71% when compared to Q3 2023. 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.
