Tickborne di seases affect cattle productivity in Zimbabwe resulting in low cattle productivity, low milk production, low market value and death. The major tickborne disease in Zimbabwe is theileriosis also known as January disease mainly lethal during the peak of the rainy season January. Control of theileriosis is done through cattle dipping to manage external parasites and the department of veterinary services (DVS) monitors the implementation of dipping activities in Zimbabwe. In Zimbabwe the 5 5 4 cattle dipping me thod is used, which entails that cattle dipping must be done in three times in 14 days with 5 day internals twice and then after 4 days.\nDVS is responsible for coordinating livestock disease surveillance and to motivate farmers to be active in prevention, control and eradication of disease. The government of Zimbabwe implemented land reforms in the late 1990 to early 2000s and this resulted in increased farmer population and strained veterinary thus disruption in veterinary extension and disease occurrence increasing. In recent years theileriosis has been increasing on a year by year between 2018 and 2022 at least 500,000 cattle succumbed to the disease and despite the mitigatory measures by the government to reduce the prevalence of the disease the economi c cost of the disease huge. DVS has put in a plan to deal with theileriosis but the disease continues to increase thus leaving a gap on the possibility of farmer knowledge, attitudes and behavior towards the theileriosis.\nUsing the principal agent theory this research was done to evaluate the veterinary extension and farmer relationship and what factors have contributed to information asymmetry in livestock production in Zimbabwe. The aim of the research was to outline three specific objectives which are: socio economic characteristics of the farmers in Mhondoro Ngezi impact the knowledge of theileriosis; communication mediums used by the veterinary influence the level of knowledge for theileriosis prevention and control; and knowledge and attitudes towards theileriosis influence 5 5 4 cattle dipping behavior. This study was done in Mhondoro Ngezi, Zimbabwe, a district in Mashonaland Province. The district was chosen because it has been the epicenter of the theileriosis outbreak in Zimbabwe. Data was collect ed in two phases between September 2021 and October 2022.\nUsing the multivariate probit model regression was done to analyze the socio economic factors that impact knowledge of theileriosis and source of veterinary information. Farmers age, gender, educa tion, ownership of radio, landholding and ownership of mobile phone are the main socio economic indicators that impact knowledge of theileriosis. There is an aged population of farmers in the rural areas with an average age of 53 years and the age skewed t o the right with more farmers in the 50 65 age range. There were more male farmers than females however the female farmers participated more in cattle dipping programs than their male counterparts. Education was a significant indictor to disease knowledge. Further farmers who had mobile phones with access to the internet had more contact with veterinary. \nInstrumental Variables method was used to analyze the endogeneity problem on knowledge of theileriosis and its effect on percentage of dead cattle. Commun ication mediums and source of information were the two exogenous variable that influenced knowledge of theileriosis. knowledge of theileriosis was significant in reducing the percentage of dead cattle per farmer. Farmers who used the right source of inform ation from the veterinary extension and used communication mediums that promoted retention of message such as written documents and recorded material had higher knowledge than the famers who relied on word of mouth. Age of the farmer played a significant role to the knowledge acquisition process as well as the income and veterinary access time.\nTo evaluate the behavior of farmers towards 5-5-4 cattle dipping, knowledge and attitude analysis was done using a structural equation model. Knowledge of theilerio sis was reflected in the ability of farmers to identify the signs of the disease, while the attitude of the farmers was more inclined to separating sick cows. the 5 5 4 behavior of cattle dipping was indicated to be practiced by farmers who were active in dip tank management and those that has a practice of cutting the tail brush. Knowledge and attitude had no significant relationship and attitude had no significant relationship with behavior, however, knowledge and behavior had a significant positive relat ionship meaning that the higher the farmer knowledge the higher the chances to practice 5 5 4 cattle dipping.\nThe DVS (principal), had limited contact with the farmer in order to influence or motivate the farmers (agent) to have the desired behavior pract ice. There is evidence of information asymmetry, which has been as a result of the principal’s actions failure to respond to the growing needs of the farmers to motivate and incentivize the farmer to practice the proper biosecurity measures. DVS must consi der developing education programs that they use in youth groups and primary and secondary schools to encourage young farmers to be active in livestock production. To attract young and energetic farmers DVS should support agriculture education curriculum on livestock production in primary and secondary schools.\nFarmers have challenges to access veterinary services and there is limited direct and indirect communication, thus DVS should consider using radio platforms for the rural farmers who can’t use social media platforms as the radio is a trusted source of information. This means that DVS must ensure that there are regional specific strategies that meet with the socio economic status of the farmers. Farmers generating income from livestock production had i ncreased knowledge of theileriosis because of the need to protect their cattle herd from disease, thus, it is important for DVS to encourage the government to incentivize and motivate rural farmers to participate in livestock value chain and create policie s that protect rural and smallholder livestock keepers. The government of Zimbabwe should consider increasing agriculture subsidies that are for livestock production thus improving the farmer understanding of agriculture livestock production.\nLand reform had a negative impact on disease control but the introduction of community based activities like dip tank management which can be done on a rotational basis in the local communities will help improve individual farmer participation in livestock production in rural areas. Though the government is still in the trial phase on the vaccine production, it must be noted that increase in knowledge and improving behavior practice for biosecurity in individual farm is important to achieve success in disease eradicati on. To remove information asymmetry, Public Private Partnerships and collaboration between principal and the agent must be prioritized to motivate and incentivize farmers.","subitem_description_language":"en","subitem_description_type":"Abstract"},{"subitem_description":"家畜疾病は発展途上国における家畜生産の大きな制約要因であり、疾病の存在は畜産業の成長を妨げ、農業生産の効率性を低下させるため、家畜衛生課題への対応が急務である。サブサハラアフリカでは、ダニ媒介性疾病が牛の生産性を大きく低下させている。ジンバブエではダニ媒介性疾病により牛の乳生産量は低下、最後的に家畜は死亡し、その市場価値は失われる。ジンバブエの主なダニ媒介性疾病は、1月病としても知られるタイレリア症で、主に雨季のピークである1月に発生する。タイレリア症の制御は、駆虫剤が入った設備（水槽）に牛を入れる（CattleDipping、以下、CD）ことで行われており、獣医サービス局DepartmentofVeterinaryService、以下、DVS）がCDによるタイレリア症の制御を監視している。ジンバブエでは、14日間のうちに、5日間隔で2回、その4日後にさらに１回、計3回のCDを行う、5-5-4CDと呼ばれる方法が推奨されている。\nジンバブエでは農家人口が増加し、農地改革により獣医療サービスは崩壊状態にあり、家畜疾病の発生が増加してきた。近年では、タイレリア症は2018年から2022年にかけて年々増加しており、この病気で死亡した牛は少なくとも5万頭に達した。DVSはタイレリア症に対処する方策を検討しているが、この疾病に関わる農家の知識・態度・行動と現実の対策には大きなギャップが存在する。\nこの研究の目的は、農家の特徴と家畜衛生対策の知識レベルを評価し、獣医サービスと農家の関係をプリンシパル・エージェント理論から考察し、情報の非対称性の状態にあるジンバブエの畜産生産活動の課題を、知識・態度・行動の視点から解明することにある。調査地域はマスホナランド県モンドロ・ンゲジ地区で、ジンバブエにおいてタイレリア症の被害が最も大きいな地域である。主な研究目的は次の３点である。第一は、農家の社会経済的特徴がタイレリア症の知識水準に与える影響を解明することである。第二は、コミュニケーション手段がどのようにタイレリア症の予防と抑制の知識水準に影響を与えているかを明らかにすることである。第三は、農家のタイレリア症の知識・態度がどのように5-5-4CDの実施に影響を与えているかを明らかにすることである。調査データは、2021年9月から2022年10月までの間に行った２回のフィールド調査から収集した。\n多変量プロビットモデルにより、タイレリア症の知識水準に影響を与える農家の社会経済的特性について分析を行った。性別、ラジオの所有、農地所有形態、携帯電話の所有等がタイレリア症の知識水準に与える要因であった。女性経営者は、よりCDに参加する傾向があった。また、インターネットにアクセスできる携帯電話を持つ農家ほど、獣医師との接触回数も多くなることが明らかとなった。\n次に、タイレリア症の知識獲得におけるコミュニケーション手段の利用がどのように、牛の死亡頭数の減少に影響を与えているか、操作変数法の手法から明らかにした。タイレリア症の知識水準は農家の死亡家畜を減少させることが統計的に示された。手書きの資料などで情報を保有する農家ほど、口頭で情報交換する農家より高い知識を持っていた。\nまた、5-5-4CDの農家行動に知識と態度がどのような影響を与えているかを構造方程式モデルから明らかにした。タイレリア症の知識は疾病の兆候を見つける能力と関連があった。554CDの実施は、CDの水槽管理を行っている農家で頻繁に行われる傾向が確認された。また、農家の知識が高まると、5-5-4CDを実施している傾向が示された。\nDVS（プリンシパル）は農家（エージェント）と限られた接触機会しかなく、獣医師と農家には情報の非対称性の問題があり、プリンシパルがエージェントの要求に十分に対応できていない状況にある。DVSは若い農家が畜産生産の現場で意欲的に活動できるような教育プログラムの開発を考える必要があるだろう。\n農家はラジオのような信頼できる情報源がなく、農家は獣医サービスへのアクセスに課題をもつ。よって、DVSは、地方のソーシャルメディアが使えない農家向けに、ラジオ放送の利用を考えるべきである。家畜生産からの収入割合が高い農家は、牛を病気から守る必要性から、タイレリア症の知識水準が高かった。DVSは、地方の小規模農家が畜産バリューチェーンに参加する誘因を政府に与えるよう働きかけることが重要である。\nジンバブエの農地改革は家畜疾病対策に悪影響を及ぼしたが、CDの水槽管理については、地域コミュニティで輪番ベースにより実施できる取組みは、農村での個々の農民参加を促進するであろう。ジンバブエではタイレリア症のワクチン開発は進んでいるが、疾病を根絶させるには、農家個々におけるバイオセキュリティの知識水準向上と農家行動の変革が求められる。情報の非対称性の課題を解消するには、プリンパル（政府）とエージェント（農家）の協力関係が重要である。","subitem_description_language":"ja","subitem_description_type":"Abstract"}]},"item_3_description_8":{"attribute_name":"内容記述","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_description":"博士学位論文","subitem_description_language":"ja","subitem_description_type":"Other"},{"subitem_description":"大学院畜産学研究科
