Veterinary scientists routinely use advanced equipment with
computer interfaces for their research. Field veterinarians in many

data for sample surveys, livestock census, technical reports and
human resource management. This has led to the creation of a whole
new branch of science called Veterinary Informatics". This book
covers not only the basics of information technology like

practical applications in the field of veterinary science like
livestock health care, disease monitoring and surveillance,
telemedicine, veterinary hospital management software, herd
