| Description: |
The Alabama Cooperative Extension System (ACES) at Alabama A&M University will offer a series of small ruminant health workshops, including free gastrointestinal (GI) parasite identification and FAMACHA training. The workshops are conducted at the beginning of the grazing season in early spring since this is the season when gastrointestinal parasite infections (worms)and other diseases may be more prevalent.
The objective of the workshops is to educate farmers, veterinarian practitioners, Extension agents, and other interested persons on:
Best health management practices for small ruminants, FDA-approved and non-approved parasite deworming methods to treat GI parasitism among goat and sheep herds, including the FAMACHA test developed by South African scientists, the
McMaster technique of nematode fecal-egg identification and counting
life cycle of gastrointestinal worms, and the consequences of parasite-host interactions.
Note: FAMACHA cards will be available for purchasing. |
