On five newly established large goat farms the incidence of antibodies to some chronic and latent infections (arthritis and encephalitis, Q-fever, caseous lymphadenitis and toxoplasmosis) was investigated. Agar-gel immunodiffusion did not reveal any antibodies to arthritis and encephalitis of goats (CAE). Complement fixation test did not demonstrate any antibodies to Q-fever. Neither agar-gel immunodiffusion nor neutralization test confirmed any antibodies to caseous lymphadenitis. Complement fixation test (titre 1:8 and more) revealed antibodies to toxoplasmosis at 20.2 % of the cases. No clinical symptoms of toxoplasmosis were observed on the investigated goat farms. It was recommended to take a preventive serological examination of goats against CAE, Q-fever and caseous lymphadenitis before they were housed on the given farms. By maintaining high zoohygienic parameters on the large goat farms it is possible to except a decrease in prevalence of antibodies to toxoplasmosis.
