Distribution of common infectious diseases in ruminant livestock (The figure shows the typical distribution of key infectious diseases in a farming year in farmers’ herds based on proportional piling by 65 experienced farmers purposively selected to participate in focus group discussions. The gradient of color shows the reported distribution of the diseases on a percentage scale (from 0 to 100%) with light coloration depicting low prevalence and deep coloration depicting high prevalence. The y-axis shows the proportion of the farmers reporting a specified prevalence level of each disease condition in their herds. Each column bar on the x-axis depicts the two most common diseases for large and small ruminant farmers respectively)
