Abstract
The weight and numeral productivity of traditional and half-stabulation livestock in the Ruzizi plain is threatened by a permanent state of endemic diseases and epizootics, among which foot-and-mouth disease inflicts morbidity and mortality on cattle herds in the communities of this entity. In view of the scattered efforts in finding solutions through a vaccination program, the study conducted consists of a synthesis of the complexity of a treatment of this viral epizootic or treatment mainly symptomatic, drastic and advanced comes to the rescue up to 100% danger for both calves and adult cattle in the area around the pilot farm based in Bwegera. While the action may seem costly, however to the uncertain preventive vaccine solution and the eradication measures not in sight, we contributed by this contribution of lesser evil.

Abstract: (french)
La productivité pondérale et numérique du bétail élevé en système traditionnel et ou en semi-stabulation dans la plaine de la Ruzizi est menacée par un état permanent des maladies endémiques et des épizooties parmi lesquelles la fièvre aphteuse inflige une morbidité et une mortalité aux cheptels bovins des communautés locales de cette entité. Au vu des efforts dispersés dans la recherche des solutions à travers un programme de vaccination, l’étude menée consiste en une synthèse de la complexité d’un traitement de cette épizootie virale ou le traitement essentiellement symptomatique, drastique et de pointe vient à la rescousse jusqu’à écarter le danger à 100% aussi bien pour les veaux que pour les bovins adultes dans le périmètre d’action autour de la ferme pilote basée à Bwegera. Certes l’action peut sembler couteuse, cependant à la solution vaccinale préventive incertaine et les mesures d’éradication non en vue, nous avons contribué par cet apport de moindre mal.
