Welcome to the web site dedicated to
"Controlling of Animal Parasites
in Sustainable Agricultural Systems"
The Western regional research project W-102 is the only regional project
dedicated to the understanding and control of livestock parasites. The objective
of this revised project is to study the biology, pathogenesis and treatment of
protozoan and helminth diseases of livestock. Development of control programs
combining traditional chemotherapy with novel techniques of parasite control is
anticipated. The reduced dependence on antiparasitic drug use will follow
development of alternative parasite control measures and will be more
appropriate for new, more sustainable systems of contemporary livestock
production.
