Brucellosis and tuberculosis are chronic infectious diseases and considered as zoonosis, which represent large economic losses to dairy cattle and public health. Our objectives were to study the epidemiological situation of these diseases in the properties that supply milk to the Municipal Program of Botucatu entitled Dairy School; determine the degree of knowledge of small farmers about these diseases through a questionnaire prepared for this purpose. At the end of the questionnaire the producers received technical instruction on the topics and we performed a social work awareness of zoonotic importance and health. The study was conducted in 22 small dairy farms of Botucatu-SP, which provide milk for kindergartens and public schools. The tests performed were those recommended by the National Program for Control and Eradication of Brucellosis and Tuberculosis (PNCEBT), which are serologic for brucellosis and tuberculosis imunoalergic. Reagents animals to both tests were removed from the property, taken to the Veterinary Hospital of FMVZ/UNESP, Botucatu, to perform necropsies. The total number of animals tested for tuberculosis was 736, and for brucellosis 512. It has been found Brucellosis at least one positive for tuberculosis in 13.6% (3/22) of properties, for brucellosis in 31.8% (7/22). The prevalence of disease observed was 0.8% (6/736) and 2.3% (12/512) for tuberculosis and brucellosis, respectively. Data from this study were similar to those in regional work of the national literature. Therefore, in the micro region of Botucatu, these diseases still represent very important socio-economic, health and public health
