What Does IBR Stand For?
IBR stands for Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis
Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis (IBR) is a viral disease caused by the bovine herpesvirus 1 (BHV-1), primarily affecting cattle. It is characterized by respiratory and reproductive issues, including coughing, nasal discharge, and inflammation of the upper respiratory tract. IBR can lead to significant economic losses in the cattle industry due to reduced productivity, increased veterinary costs, and potential impacts on herd health. Prevention strategies include vaccination and maintaining good biosecurity practices.
