Some general aspects of disease and fertility in relation to
sheep production are discussed. These include a consideration of how
losses are caused by disease, and the problems posed by lack of
knowledge of economic losses associated with both overt and inapparent
disease. Some problems of disease and fertility, the necessity to remain
constantly aware of the dangers of exotic diseases, and the effects of
higher stocking rates on sheep health are also discussed.
