description: 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 strategies).
