Magen-Darm Würmer sind eines der grössten Probleme in der Haltung von kleinen Wiederkäuern. Infektionen mit diesen Parasiten führen je nach Befallsgrad zu erheblichen Einbussen in der Leistung der Tiere und können deren Gesundheit stark beeinträchtigen. Die Kontrolle von Magen-Darm Würmern stützt sich seit über 30 Jahren auf den Einsatz von Entwurmungsmitteln. Der lang jährige Einsatz dieser Mittel ist aber nicht unproblematisch. Bereits vor 15 Jahren gab es erste Berichte über reduzierte Wirksamkeiten von gewissen Entwurmungsmitteln. Weiterführende Studien brachten den Beweis, dass gewisse Wurmpopulationen Resistenzen gegen die Mittel entwickelt hatten. Gegenwärtig sind resistente Magen-Darm Wurmpopulationen weltweit eher die Regel als die Ausnahme und... |

Dairy goats, naturally infected with gastrointestinal nematodes, were fed 700g sainfoin- or alfalfa-pellets per day, additionally to a non-tanniferous basic diet. The effect of the feeding on the parasite egg excretion per gramm faeces (EPG) was monitored over a period of 7 weeks. The trial was conducted in parallel at two sites; in France and in Switzerland. At both sites the same quality of sainfoin- and alfalfapellets were used. Compared to the alfalfa group the EPG of the sainfoin fed goats were reduced by 12% in France andby 18% in Switzerland. A repeated measurement analysis revealed no significant difference between the feeding groups at neither site. As it is very likely that the effect of condensed tannins on gastrointestinal nematodes is dose... |

Il y a peu, le grand projet «LowInputBreeds» a été lancé en Europe. Il concerne la garde «Low Input» et la garde biologique d’animaux. Le présent article veut montrer quels travaux concernent les moutons dans ce projet et comment les groupes de recherche suisses travaillent dans le contexte international. Les 21 partenaires d’Europe et d’Outre-mer collaborant à ce projet se sont donnés pour but d’améliorer la santé et le bienêtre des principales espèces d’animaux de rente à l’aide de stratégies de gestion et d’élevage. Le projet est doté d’un budget total de 9 millions d’euros et court jusqu’en 2014. Il est cofinancé par le 7ème programme-cadre de recherche de la Commission européenne. |

Gastro-intestinal nematodes (GIN) are the most important problem in small ruminant production with regard to animal welfare and economics. The control of GIN currently relies almost exclusively on the use of synthetic anthelmintics. This is unsatisfactory for organic as well as for conventional small ruminant farmers because of rapid increase of resistant GIN populations and risk of residues in meat and milk. Alternatives to synthetic anthelmintics are therefore needed. This poster presents the main alternative control strategies for GIN. The strategies are divided into measures aimed at freeliving GIN stages (grazing management, biological control) and at stages within the host (genetic resistance, vaccination, anthelmintic plants, feeding... |

Gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN) are one of the most important problems affecting health and therefore performance and welfare in small ruminant husbandry. The control of these parasites in the past strongly relied on the repeated use of anthelmintic drugs. This has led to nematode populations which are resistant to most of the currently available anthelmintics. Furthermore customer’s demands for organic and residue free animal products are increasing. The aforementioned problems have given a strong impetus for the development of new non-chemical strategies to control GIN. Previous research has pointed out the anthelmintic potential of sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia, cv. Visnovsky) and other tanniferous (CT) feed sources in goats and lambs infected with... |

This study investigates meat quality of four autochthonous Swiss ovine breeds, White Alpine (WAS, n=15), Walliser blacknose sheep (SN, n=8), Engadine sheep (EN, n=9) and the Mirror sheep (SP, n=10). Especially for the latter two breeds, which are rare and endangered, information about meat quality and constitution is important for merchandising issues. All lambs (LW 20-25 kg) of each breed were fattened on pasture for 208 d and subsequently slaughtered. Evaluations were carried out for slaughter yield and classifications, pH-value, colorimetry (L*a*b*-System), shear force (Warner Bratzler method) and cooking losses in the Musculus longissimus dorsi. The results showed no meat quality defects in any breed. The main differences between breeds arose... |

The aim of our experiments was to investigate the transmission and infectivity of the two main helminth parasites of poultry (Ascaridia galli and Heterakis gallinarum) under different run and litter management regimes. In experiment (a) two stocking rates were simulated in outdoor runs and the effect of a simple management practice (mowing) on helminth transmission was studied during two subsequent flocks. Stocking rate seemed not to change helminth transmission patterns and repeated mowing of runs did not reduce helminth infections. Lower stocking rates led to a substantial improvement of the run vegetation. In experiment (b) two litter management regimes (replace or add litter material) were compared to unmanaged litter with regard to... |

Management of paddocks for free-range layers requires an effort from farmers to minimize the adverse effects of these systems on animal health (e.g., parasites)and environment (e.g., nutrient accumulation and leaching). In this study, we report results from 2 on-farm experiments conducted to investigate (1) the effects of rotational versus continuous use of the paddocks and(2) the effects of wood chips in the area close to the pop holes (openings to the paddock) with regard to turf quality, nutrient load in the soil, and parasite infections. Rotational use of the hen paddocks led to a lower proportion of bare soil close to the house, but not in more distant regions. Covering the area in front of the house with wood chips did not reduce bare areas. Nitrogen... |

Gastrointestinal parasitism with helminths and protozoa remains a major threat in cattle and small ruminant production and has been “rediscovered” in pig and poultry production systems operating under organic farming rules because of the requirement to grant outdoor access to the animals. The control of these parasitic infections is a key issue for the economic viability of farms and for animal welfare. Control solutions aim at (i) providing the agronomical bases for parasite control through rational management of pastures; (ii) stimulating the host immune response through different means; (iii) exploring and evaluating the efficacy of new drugs (i.e., phytotherapy, homeopathy and nutraceuticals); and (iv) developing new concepts of application of chemical... |

Les vers gastro-intestinaux comptent parmi les problèmes principaux dans la garde de petits ruminants. Les infestations engendrent selon leur importance des pertes considérables au niveau de la productivité et peuvent fortement compromettre la santé des animaux. Depuis plus de 30 ans le contrôle des vers gastro-intestinaux se base sur l’administration de vermifuges. Cependant, certains problèmes apparaissent; les premiers rapports faisant état d’une efficacité réduite de certains vermifuges datent d’il y a 15 ans déjà. Des études plus poussées ont démontré quecertaines populations de vers avaient développé des résistances contre ces préparations. À l’heure actuelle, à l’échelle mondiale les populations de vers gastrointestinaux résistants sont plutôt la... |
