Serum samples were collected from 101 animals from organized dairy farms of Jabalpur district. Slide micro agglutination test was employed to assess the sero-prevalence of Salmonella agglutinins in calves as well as adult bovine. Samples were collected from both diarrhoeic and non diarrhoeic apparently healthy animals. The sero-agglutination was observed in 14.5 per cent diarrhoeic cases. Maximal seroprevalence was detected in diarrhoeic adult buffalo (50%). Agglutination was observed in 22.6 per cent non diarrhoeic apparently healthy animals comprising 06, 02, 03 and 01 cases from cattle calf, buffalo calf, adult cattle and adult buffalo, respectively.
