Aim: Intestinal parasites cause severe diseases at poultry farms, especially in developing countries, including Indonesia. Infections cause significant decreases in productivity at poultry farms. Ascaridia galli is a common nematode found in chickens with a prevalence of up to 92%. This study evaluates the in vitro and in vivo effects of Areca catechu crude aqueous extract (AAE) as an anthelmintic against A. galli. Materials and Methods: In the in vitro study, already-infected slaughtered chickens were collected from local slaughterhouses in Yogyakarta. The chicken intestines were carefully examined and transported to the Parasitological Laboratory of Gadjah Mada University, Yogyakarta. A. galli was collected from the intestines and put into a Petri dish containing 0.62% saline solution. Sixty A. galli individuals were soaked in different concentrations of the AAE for 3-6 h. The number of deceased A. galli was recorded by ascertaining whether they had ceased movement using a stereo microscope. The morphological characteristics of the parasites were studied. The in vivo study used 40 female chickens that were 1.5 months old and infected with the eggs of A. galli. Approximately 3000 infective eggs were found in each chicken. There were four treatment groups; Group A served as the control and was treated with Aquadestilata, Group B was treated with 26 mg/ml of AAE, Group C was treated with 79 mg/ml of AAE, and Group D was treated with 50 mg/ml of pyrantel pamoate. The AAE was applied using a pipette for 14 days. The observed parameters include the effect of the treatments on hematology, body weight (BW), and the number of A. galli eggs within each gram of fecal matter. Results: The AAE damaged the morphology, including the anterior end, posterior end, and vulva, of A. galli in vitro. The tegument of the anterior and posterior ends was slightly rougher, wrinkled, and damaged. The vulva and spicule ducts were irregular and indistinct. The average eggs per gram (EPG) in the untreated control increased in vivo from 1450±355.90 to 1975±325.96. The average EPG decreased from 1485±386.62 to 0±0.00 during 14 days of treatment of 79 mg/ml of AAE. The mean BW gain in the treated chickens was significantly (p<0.5) higher than the control. The treatment with 79 mg/ml of AAE increased the total erythrocyte count, total leukocyte count, hemoglobin, and packed cell volume values in the chickens. Conclusion: AAE can cause morphological changes and subsequent death in adult A. galli in vitro and effectively decrease ascariasis severity in chickens, therefore increasing overall BW in vivo.

“…Devido ao seu potencial de reduzir a fome, existem algumas campanhas e manuais de incentivo, como é o caso de: (i) Family Poultry interactions with other production systems(forestry, tree crops, annual crops, large animals, fisheries, etc): Nutritional opportunities and constraints; (ii) Family Poultry Development e; (iii) Decision Tools For Family Poultry Development, todos lançados pela FAO. Com a mesma intenção, as Nações Unidas lançaram o 2014 International Year of Family Farming(Henuk, 2015). 5 O número de trabalhos que falam sobre o tema é bastante expressivo, tratando do assunto em várias partes do globo, tanto em documentos técnicos quanto em estudos de caso.…”

Economic importance of the poultry disease prevention policy for Brazil: the case of Avian Influenza With the concern about the risks related to poultry health, the National Poultry Health Program (PNSA), one of the main health policy instruments for this sector, under the auspices of the federal government, aims to guide and create mechanisms to prevent and combat poultry diseases. Among these diseases, Avian Influenza, salmonellosis, mycoplasmosis and Newcastle disease account for the largest losses in the industry worldwide. One of the most important elements in the structure of prevention of the introduction and dissemination of these diseases is the inspection of imported products at the country's points of entry (ports, airports and dry frontiers), through a surveillance service (Vigiagro/Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Food Supply-MAPA). Also noteworthy is the examination of samples resulting from the inspection actions which, in the case of Avian Influenza (AI) and Newcastle Disease, go through the official laboratories service-Lanagros, MAPA. In this context, the objective of this study was to discuss the economic importance of these diseases, especially with regard to the effects on international trade, and to evaluate the potential impacts that outbreaks of Avian Influenza would have on the Brazilian economy. Scenarios were constructed for different situations in terms of duration of shocks effects on the external sales of poultry and other poultry products and the probability of occurrence of AI. From these impacts, the proposal was to identify the benefits generated by the control and prevention of the introduction of AI in national territory. That is, these benefits were projected from losses avoided by the control and prevention of the disease, especially those resulting from the slaughter of sick birds and those who had direct contact with the former and from the drop in exports of poultry products. The situations were characterized using parameters found in the literature and from them were carried out simulations, for a window of 10 years, adopting the Monte Carlo method. Among the results obtained, it was verified that the benefits of the services of prevention to the introduction of AI, approximated by the performance of Lanagro / SP and Vigiagro, exceed their costs. These results were intensified when one takes into account the adoption of more modern health management instruments, as foreseen by the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE), such as compartmentalisation. Among other simulation results, the benefit-cost ratio presented, on average, values above 3. Although the results were based on hypothetical scenarios, constructed with parameters and information from other countries that have experienced health crises due to AI, and there is a underestimation of the costs of health policies and the non-inclusion of private costs (from the producer and the processing industry) to the prevention of the disease, they highlighted the economic importance of maintaining a sanitary policy...
