Abstract

A randomised intervention trial, involving 4,062 breeding ewes from 14 different farms in Southwest Wales, yielded estimates of the effect of vaccination against Toxoplasma gondii on the physical reproductive performance of sheep. These estimates were incorporated into partial budget simulation models designed to investigate the economic merits of the two vaccination regimes that are encountered in the field.
