↑ = significantly higher prevalence in larger herds (p < 0.05), ns = not significant (p > 0.05).

^(a)

Number of farms.

^(b)

Statistical analysis: MA = multivariable analysis (in the case of univariable pre‐selection of factors only effects of the final models were considered), UA = univariable analysis.
