Lamb vaccination against echinococcosis is considered an effective method for controlling the transmission of echinococcosis in the intermediate host\u2014sheep, thereby disrupting the disease's transmission chain, and thus a crucial strategy for preventing and controlling echinococcosis. Based on field survey data on 581 households collected from 11 counties of China's Qinghai Province, this study evaluated the impact of lamb vaccination against echinococcosis on livestock farming scale using a staggered difference\u2010in\u2010differences method. The results show that on average, households that received lamb vaccination from their county as part of the \u2018Action Plan for Echinococcosis Prevention and Control in Qinghai Province (2016\u20132020)\u2019 had a livestock farming scale of 52.09 heads (or 36%) higher than those that did not receive lamb vaccination. This effect likely works through reductions in cattle and sheep mortality and culling numbers. A simple accounting analysis suggested that the increase in livestock farming scale can translate into a profit of 26,500 yuan (\u22483938 US dollars at 2022 prices), although this impact has a short\u2010term lag and is limited in duration. While these findings may not apply to all livestock households in China, they suggest that developing area\u2010specific lamb vaccination programs, increasing lamb vaccination rates, and ensuring timely vaccinations are crucial for enhancing livestock farming scale in echinococcosis endemic areas.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/vms3.70273","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,11]],"date-time":"2025-03-11T22:02:49Z","timestamp":1741730569000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["The Effect of Lamb Vaccination Against Echinococcosis on the Scale of Livestock Farming in Northwestern China"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0002-6428-4324","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Bingxin","family":"Liu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Economics &amp; Management China Agricultural University  Beijing P.R.
