The farming of deer as an alternative to traditional livestock
enterprises is now firmly established and is expanding within
several countries of the European Economic Community. However, the
successful farming of deer requires the adoption of appropriate
management schemes to accommodate the biological requirements of
these animals. Much experience has now been gained and it is
essential that this information becomes readily available througout
the Community. In addition, as the volume of deer farming has
increased a number of health problems have become recognised which
present features distinct from other domestic ruminants. Although
knowledge is still incomplete it would appear that deer may react
to certain pathogens in a very different way to other domestic
ruminants, presenting new problems of diagnosis and control. The
rapid detection of these conditions and development of appropriate
control strategies will be essential for the establishment of an
economically viable deer farming industry in the Community. Much of
the information on the management of farmed deer and their diseases
is anecdotal and fragmented and the purpose of this meeting was to
accelerate the dissemination of this knowledge between scientists
in the Community committed to the development of this area of
agricultural industry. The meeting, financed by the Commission of
the European Communities from its budget for the Coordination of
Agricultural Research in the Community was held in Scotland, on the
10th to 11th December, 1987.
