Abstract
⺠The 2009-2010 cattle-level seroconversion rate was estimated at 7%. ⺠A specific practice of cattle barter, known as kapsile, was observed in addition to usual trade. ⺠The kapsile practice may be the support for inter-village RVFV circulation. ⺠The trade network is probably implicated in the introduction of RVFV to the area from other parts of Madagascar. ⺠Analyse suggests that after RVFV introduction, vector-based transmission may support a substantial part of the circulation.
