The Mond Nickel Company, Limited, Film UnitCountry of production:ukSponsor:The Mond Nickel Company, LimitedDistributor name:The Mond Nickel Company, LimitedDescription:The film outlines the history and treatment of Pining Disease in sheep. It explains that the disease is caused by a cobalt-deficient diet and recommends that sheep farmers have their pastures checked for cobalt deficiency. Methods of distributing cobalt in the fields and administering it by pill or bottle to sheep are demonstrated. Graphs are used to illustrate the results of tests performed on sheep by Dr. J. Stewart at the Moredun Institute in Edinburgh, Scotland. Maps indicate areas where Pining Disease is common and the various names by which it is known in these areas. A final sequence points out that cattle too, are susceptible to the disease. <13mn>Language:EnglishNotes: -
