12 Lumpy skin disease (LSD) causes economic losses for cattle farmers, caused by the LSD virus, genus of Capripoxvirus, family of Poxviridae. This disease is characterized by the presence of nodules on the skin. This virus only infects cattle and swamp buffalo with a low mortality rate, but has a high morbidity rate. This virus, however, does not infect goats and sheep. Until now, LSD has not been reported in Indonesia, therefore the knowledge about LSD is needed to be introduced especially for field veterinarians and paramedics so the disease can be well informed. This paper discusses about transmission, epidemiology, diagnosis, risk factors and control measures of LSD, hence, the entry of LSD infection into Indonesia can be detected, reported and response as early as possible by relevant stakeholders.
