- Abstract
The author reflects on the application of Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) in the agricultural industry. The author provides critical analysis on the potential role of MAP in the aetiology of debilitating inflammatory bowel disease Crohn's disease in farm animals. Moreover, the author relates the study of D. Radia and colleagues on the financial value and potential efficacy of eight measures to control the exposure of calves to MAP.
