Summary
Private contract research organisation Veterinary Health Research co-funded this MDC project to investigate drench resistance in cattle nematodes in northern NSW. The faecal egg count reduction test (FECRT) was used on 6 properties. Possible macrocyclic lactone (ML) resistance was detected in Cooperia spp. on two and in Haemochus placei on one property.
