Abstract
The use of chemicals to control helminths has aimed at eradication of the parasites and has certainly reduced population numbers. Nevertheless, control by deliberate stimulation of immunity in ruminants, following moderate exposure to infection, is still important and involves principles derived from experimental epidemiology that should not be overlooked by the farmer seeking guidance in managing pastures and stock.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
