If beef cattle producers don’t start changing the way they handle parasites in herds now, they may risk the effectiveness of dewormers in the future.
That’s the message from Christine Navarre, Louisiana State University Extension veterinarian. Speaking on dewormer resistance, she warns, “I don’t see any new products in the pipeline. If we don’t change what we have been doing, back off to be sustainable long term, if we keep doing what we are doing, we are not going to have any products available to us.”
