Interventions against intestinal Nematodes: nutritional and chemotherapeutic solutions
Nematode worms are significant health problems for sheep and goats throughout the world. The impact is seen in a number of ways. Parasitism causes a reduction in food intake and lower weight gains. Milk production can also be affected, and heavily parasitised animals may die. The economic consequences for livestock...
