The informants were asked to list the treatment options for six camel diseases including Haemorrhagic Septicaemia/“Swollen Gland Syndrome” (HS/SGS), RDC 1, RDC 2, camel pox, wry neck and trypanosomosis. These were priority camel diseases according to nearly all the informant groups except trypanosomosis which was introduced as a ‘controlı´ again because its treatment is well known. Each disease represented by its major clinical signs drawn on a card was placed on the x-axis of a matrix on the ground. Frequency of occurrence of the diseases and their relative response to treatment were determined by scoring using 30 stones. One indicator was scored at a time. The most frequently occurring disease was given highest score and the least frequent was given lowest score. Relative response to treatment was determined the same way; the disease that responds best to treatment compared to the other five was given the highest score and the ones with relatively poor response to treatment was given low scores
