A survey of the current prevalence of bovine brucellosis in slaughtered cattle and buffaloes had been carried out. The slaughter surveillance was based on the standard examination of serum for brucella agglutinins by the Rose Bengal plate test (RBPT) and serum aglutination test (SAT). The overall incidence of reactors was apparently negligible; most titers were low, but the detection of serologically positive animals with high SAT titres give rise for concern. The incidence was slightly higher in females (2.61%) than in males (0.59%). The present results do not reflect the true situation at the national level.
