A cross-sectional investigation of Bovine Tuberculosis (BTB) was conducted on 1132 dairy cattle from 56 herds using comparative intradermal tuberculin test (CIDT), postmortem examination, bacteriological culturing, and molecular typing of mycobacterium isolates involving spoligotyping and variable number of tandem repeat (VNTR). Herd and individual BTB prevalence rate was found to be 53.6% (95% CI=39.74- 67.00) and 34.1% (95% CI =31.33-36.92) respectively. The individual animal prevalence was significantly affected by both herd size (χ2 =10.9, p<0.001) and age of the animals (χ2= 56.4, p<0.001). Moreover, a strong positive correlation (r=0.89, p<0.001) was observed between herd size and number of reactor
