Effect of feeding bioactive forages on infection and subsequent development of Haemonchus contortus in lamb faeces
- Veterinary Parasitology, 172, p.89-94, 2010 .
Contrasting dried herbage diets were offered to lambs to evaluate their effects on Haemonchus contortus infection and on subsequent development of larvae in faeces. Artificially infected lambs (n = 24, 4 months old)were allocated to one of four treatment groups (n = 6)and fed on hay of lucerne (Medicago sativa; Lu), sulla (Hedysarum coronarium; Su), sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia; Sa)or wormwood (Artemisia absinthium; Wo)included as 20
