Summary
Salmonellosis in humans is a public health threat and cattle are important reservoirs for the pathogen. Cattle products such as ground beef have been linked to human salmonellosis outbreaks, and some disease investigations have been traced back to infected animal herds on farms and animal markets as the origin of infection. It is now common to isolate Salmonella from many cattle operations as the pathogen once introduced onto a farm can establish an undesirable endemic condition among herds. It is, therefore, essential to adopt measures to mitigate or prevent the introduction and spread of zoonotic disease agents like Salmonella in animal populations. With this background, the potential sources and risks of Salmonella infection in cattle, the control of already established infection, and o
