Incidence of Salmonella positive samples was 39%, 25%, 50% and 42% in the farms and 30%, 20%, 20% and 30% in the depots of Dumuria under Khulna, Bagerhat Sadar under Bagerhat, Avoynagar under Jessore and Kalia under Norail district respectively. On the other hand, E. coli positive samples was 23%, 42%, 25% and 17% in the farms and 70%, 30%, 50% and 30% in the depots of Dumuria (Khulna), Bagerhat Sadar (Bagerhat), Avoynagar (Jessore) and Kalia (Norail) region respectively.
