The study area was purposively selected, and a simple random sampling method was used to selected households\u2019 fatteners from each kebele and interviewed using structured questionnaires. The present study showed that the overall prevalence of the diseases was internal and external parasite 93.3%, bloat 53.3%, black leg 71.1%, pasteurolosis 71.8%, wound 71.8%, FMD 22.2%, and anthrax 13.33% which affect fattening cattle, respectively, in the study area. All the respondents (100%) involved in the study were experienced with deworming of their animals to protect from parasites. But, only 46.7% and 42.2% of the respondents have accessed veterinary services with limited regularity and vaccination program, respectively, in the study area. Hence, the beef cattle fatting sector should be supported through considering alleviating the major disease affecting this sector and encouraging the farmers\u2019 indigenous knowledge practice with technology.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2021\/5533398","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,24]],"date-time":"2021-08-24T16:35:43Z","timestamp":1629822943000},"page":"1-5","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Assessment of Major Animal Health Problems and Their Impact on Beef Cattle Production in Doba District of West Harerghe Zone, Ethiopia"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2021","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5522-6822","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Umer Seid","family":"Geletu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Agriculture, Department Animal Science, Oda Bultum University, P.O.
