A study was carried out at the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) Debre Berhan Research Station in Ethiopia from 1992 to 1995 to compare the peri-parturient rise (PPR) in faecal nematode egg counts (FEC) in ewes of two indigenous sheep breeds. A total of 1439 Menz and 1347 Horro ew...

Breed and season effects on the peri-parturient rise in nematode egg output in indigenous ewes in a cool tropical environment
The effects of breed (Menz and Horro), season (wet and dry), and the breed by season interaction on production and response to naturally acquired gastro-intestinal (GI) nematode parasite infections (predominantly Longistrongylus elongata and Trichostrongylus spp. and a small proportion of Haemonc...

The epidemiology of nematode infections in Menz sheep was studied in the highlands of Ethiopia at the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI), Debre Berhan Research Station, using a series of tracer lambs grazing contaminated pasture for either 4, 16, 32 or 48 weeks from July 1992 to Ju...

Research in Kenya has confirmed that Red Maasai sheep are more resistant to gastrointestinal parasites than Dorper sheep and has shown that Small East African goats are more resistant than Galla goats. There is no difference in resistance between the Menz and Horro sheep breeds in Ethiopia. Herit...

The effect of urea-molasses feed-supplement blocks (MUB) on feed utilisation and the inclusion of anthelmintic medication into the blocks at strategic times to control nematode parasites was studied in lambs grazed on low quality tropical pasture. 120 Menz ram lambs of 5-7 months of age were divi...
