Abstract

Control of gastrointestinal nematodes in first-season grazing cattle is largely based on either strategic anthelmintic treatment or use of anthelmintic-release devices. Control is evolving towards more efficacious anthelmintics and delivery systems, almost annihilating parasite contact. Here, Jozef Vercruysse, Hans Hilderson and Edwin Claerebout focus on the inverse relationship between the intensive use of modern anthelmintics and the build-up of immunity to gastrointestinal nematodes.
