“…The findings show that there is no difference in prevalence rates between the sexes of calves. This outcome is in line with that demonstrated by (Shenba et al, 2016;Khalaf and Hasan, 2019). The availability of the same exposure chances, similar grazing and management practices, and exposure to the same climate are only a few of the many variables that influence the degree and scope of parasitism.…”

With ongoing climatic alternation, ignoring the influence of repellent resistance, and lack of planned treatment in many countries, the intensity and impact of gastrointestinal nematodes GIN were dramatically increased. The Mini-FLOTAC method for laboratory analysis is presented in the current investigation and is initially suggested to estimate the prevalence of abomasal nematodes and related predisposing factors in calves in Mosul, Iraq. Between October 2021 to the end of April 2022, a cross-sectional study involved several areas, and 480 fecal samples were examined. Animal data, and observed clinical signs documented during sampling. The outcome of this work indicates that the total prevalence of GIN was 50.6%. The infection rate of abomasal nematodes Haemonchus spp., Ostertagia spp., and Trichostrongylus spp. was 62.13%, 60.9%, and 54.73%, respectively. The findings related to epidemiological risk factors demonstrated that animals aged <1 year and herd size >40 were more likely to be infected with abomasal nematodes, whilst gender, origin, and zone characteristics had no significant influence. Ultimately, calves in Mosul are frequently infected with abomasal nematodes of veterinary interest (Haemonchus and Ostertagia spp.). These nematode distributions are clearly influenced by the animals' ages and the size of their herds.

“…and 15.11%, respectively. Another study(Khalaf and Hasan, 2019) stated that the total prevalence of GIT nematodes in cattle was 23.34%, with the highest percentage being Haemonchus spp. 27.13%, followed by Ostertagia spp 26.39%.…”

Soil-borne parasitic nematodes cause severe deterioration in the health of crops and supply animals, leading to enormous economic losses in the agriculture and livestock industry worldwide. The traditional strategy to control these parasites has been based on chemically synthesised compounds with parasiticidal activity, e.g., pesticides and anthelmintic drugs, which have shown a negative impact on the environment. These compounds affect the soil’s beneficial microbiota and can also remain as toxic residues in agricultural crops, e.g., fruits and legumes, and in the case of animal products for human consumption, toxic residues can remain in milk, meat, and sub-products derived from the livestock industry. Other alternatives of control with much less negative environmental impact have been studied, and new strategies of control based on the use of natural nematode enemies have been proposed from a sustainable perspective. In this review, a general view of the problem caused by parasitic nematodes affecting the agriculture and livestock industry, traditional methods of control, and new strategies of control based on eco-friendly alternatives are briefly described, with a special focus on a group of natural nematode antagonists that have been recently explored with promising results against plagues of importance for agricultural and livestock production systems.
