The invention relates to dual-gene deletion rough type bovine brucellosis and a production method for a vaccine thereof. A recombinant bacterial strain deletes a WboA gene and a vjbR gene of a bovine brucellosis 2308 strain by virtue of a non-resistance gene screening technology. Due to deletion of two genes, on the one hand, a condition (cased by WboA gene deletion) for forming an O chain in a smooth type bovine brucellosis cell wall LPS (lipopolysaccharide) structure is lost, and colonial morphology is changed into a rough type from a smooth type; and on the other hand, due to deletion of vjbR gene, toxicity of recombinant bacteria and viability in a cell are descended, so that infection ability of bovine brucellosis on a target animal is lowered, and therefore, safety of the vaccine is further improved. By using the bacterial strain to produce the vaccine, a current situation that a bovine brucellosis vaccine immune animal and a wild strain-infected animal are difficult to distinguish is changed, and safety of the existing vaccine is effectively improved.
