Sheep Connect NSW, Australian Wool Innovation and NSW DPI have produced a new publication for sheep producers that relates to all facets of diagnosis, management and eradication of Footrot.Footrot is a contagious disease of sheep caused by the bacterium Dichelobacter nodosus. As a disease of the foot it commonly presents as lameness, and is generally introduced into a flock via infected sheep (introduced, returning or straying animals). Footrot (especially the virulent strains) can be a severe, debilitating disease.Importantly, in NSW footrot is a notifiable disease and any lame sheep must be must be reported within one working day to a Local Land Services (LLS) or NSW DPI authorised officer for investigation.Footrot has significant welfare and economic impacts in both individual sheep enterprises and the national flock as a whole.This publication has been developed as part of a collaborative project between Australian Wool Innovation (AWI), AWI Sheep Connect NSW and NSW Sheep Advisory Group.The purpose of this publication is to encourage best-practice footrot diagnosis, control and eradication, with the objective of building a more sustainable Australian wool industry  through improvements in productivity and profitability.Better diagnosis and control of footrot should result in:
● healthier, more productive sheep
● easier trading between flocks
● lower treatment and labour costs
● increased confidence in state-based control programs.
