HOSTE, HERVE BRUNET, SEVERINE PAOLINI, VIRGINIE BAHUAUD, DIANE CHAUVEAU, SEVERINE BARRAU, ELODIE LEFRILEUX, YVES FOURQUAUX, ISABELLE FOURASTE, ISABELLE Health and welfare Gastrointestinal nematodes represent one of the main threat associated with the use of pastures by grazing small ruminants. In organic farming systems, the use of chemical treatments to control these parasitic diseases remain strictly limited. There is thus a need to explore novel, alternative approaches to complement or replace the action of chemical anthelmintics. This seek for novel solutions is also widely required in other farming systems, because of the widespread diffusion of anthelmintic (AH) resistance within worm populations and because of the increasing concern of consumers on drug residues in animal products. 2006 Conference paper, poster, etc. NonPeerReviewed rtf http://orgprints.org/7377/1/odenseHH.rtf HOSTE, HERVE; BRUNET, SEVERINE; PAOLINI, VIRGINIE; BAHUAUD, DIANE; CHAUVEAU, SEVERINE; BARRAU, ELODIE; LEFRILEUX, YVES; FOURQUAUX, ISABELLE and FOURASTE, ISABELLE (2006) USE OF TANNIN RICH PLANTS FOR THE CONTROL OF GASTROINTESTINAL NEMATODES IN SMALL RUMINANTS IN ORGANIC FARMING SYSTEMS.
