title: Farm-specific approach to paratuberculosis (Johne's disease) control.
abstract: Uncertainties in the understanding of Johne's disease make the pursuit of disease control confusing for producers and veterinarians. Genetic control recommendations have limited adoption or success because they fail to account for the unique circumstances of individual farms. A systematic and pragmatic approach for developing farm control plans is presented. It targets the development of plans that are adapted to individual farm circumstances and are thus more likely to be implemented and effective.
