name: Sheep Herd Health Practices with Focus on Lamb Health – a Study among Sheep Farmers in the Highlands of Ethiopia - Prevalent sheep herd health practices among smallholder sheep farmers in the highlands of Ethiopia
description: Preventive health care and healthcare routines are practiced to prevent disease and possible subsequent death in animals, regardless of species at topic. To potentiate young stock health and survival, preventive health care measures should be applied already at time of mating, and continuously be implemented during pregnancy, delivery and throughout the first living months of the offspring. Lamb mortality in Ethiopia have repeatedly been observed to be high. This study thus aims to investigate the relationship between prevalent routines and occurrence of lamb mortality in concerned herds. The study group is Ethiopian smallholder sheep farmers, and the data was collected in personal interviews strictly following an ad-hoc created questionnaire. The data aimed to qualitatively describe and document existing routines and prerequisites throughout previous year. The dataset consists of one data file (6227 rows × 124 columns) with questionnaire answers. For more information about questionnaire and variable names, see documentation files. The document files consist of a few pages with classifications and explanations of the data set. The files also incorporate the questionnaire from which the data is collected, as well as a document explaining the answers given in the interviews. The questionnaire was developed to evaluate commonly prevalent sheep herd health practices. It was developed by experts on the subject, with support in relevant literature. It was developed for this data collection solely.
