For example, Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) vaccination is given every six months for cattle, buffalo, sheep, goat, and pigs (for animals aged 4 years and above).
The vaccine is available free of cost at animal healthcare centres.
Students should record specific vaccination schedules for their local livestock by consulting veterinary professionals.
