Improving Production Outcomes and Reducing Internal Parasite Resistance in Small Ruminants

• Tuesday, September 8, 2026, 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM

One of the most challenging and financially impactful aspects of raising sheep and goats is internal parasite pressure. All flocks and herds are infected and managing these parasites through integrated pest management (IPM) including fecal egg count reduction testing (FECRT), FAMCACHA and 5-Point Check© scoring, strategic use of dewormers, and pasture rotation is essential for enterprise viability. This final report discusses these concepts in detail as well as the outcomes of 10 farms that went through one-on-one whole farm evaluations in 2025 to understand internal parasite burdens in their sheep and goats as well as levels of dewormer resistance.
