GIN parasites in LLS districts of the Australian state of New South Wales

Created 21/09/2025

Updated 21/09/2025

The data originated from sheep producer submitted faecal samples to government and commercial diagnostics laboratories and shows the intensity of parasite burdens experienced by sheep (WEC, in eggs/g) kept in commercial production environments. In a sub-set of the sample submissions, a faecal culture and subsequent microscopic differentiation of cultured larvae to genus level (FCLD) was also completed, which generates a percentage composition for the genera Haemonchus, Teladorsagia, Trichostrongylus and Cooperia and a combined figure for Oesophagostomum and Chabertia. Species-level identification and quantification is not attempted in these commercial tests.
