Abstract. The purpose of the research is to study the diagnostic methods and control measures for listeriosis among cattle in farms of the Ganja-Gazakh zone. The research was conducted in various farms located in Shamkir, Samukh and Goygol districts, in the laboratory of the Department of “Episootology, Microbiology and Parasitology” of the Faculty of “Veterinary Medicine” of the Azerbaijan State Agrarian University of Veterinary Medicine. Depending on the immune status of the organism and the virulence of the pathogen, the disease manifests itself in acute, and subacute forms among animals. Based on the high efficiency of their application in combination with sulfagin, gentomycin and oxytetracycline for the specific treatment of the disease, we recommend their use for the prevention of listeriosis before vaccination. In case of listeriosis, along with specific treatment, we carried out symptomatic treatment. We carried out disinfection, disinsection and deratization works in livestock farms in an organized manner.
