To investigate serum neutralizing antibodies against Bovine ephemeral fever (BEF) virus, Akabane virus and Ibaraki virus in southern area of Chungnam province, Holstein sera were collected from April-May(269 heads /37 farms) and October-November (226 heads /35 farms), 1993. The results were summarized as follows ; 1. Bovine ephemeral fever.-antibody positive rates to BEF virus were 46.1% (124 heads /269 Holstein) in April-May and 53.9%(122 heads /226 Holstein) in October-November. 2. Akabane disease.-antibody positive rates to Akabne virus were 34.2%(92 heads /269 holstein) in April-May and 51.3%(116 heads /226 Holstein) in October-Novermber. 3.
