Abstract: The article presents information about the important role of animal husbandry-one of the main branches of agriculture-in ensuring the food security of our country and meeting the population’s needs for milk and dairy products, meat and meat products. It also emphasizes that breeding highly productive cattle breeds is one of the priority directions in the development of the livestock sector. In connection with the rapid development of animal husbandry, the article provides information on measures aimed at ensuring rural employment, preventing unemployment, reducing poverty, and increasing the income of the population. Furthermore, numerous data indicate that ixodid ticks are the main carriers and reservoirs of piroplasmosis infection in nature and cause significant economic damage to the livestock industry. They also pose a threat to humans as vectors of transmissible diseases. When attacking cattle, ixodid ticks inject toxic substances into the organism, leading to pathological conditions such as a decrease in body temperature, weakness, anemia, depression, lack of response to external stimuli, thickening of damaged skin areas, occasional formation of purulent wounds, and heart failure.
