Roadmap for nematode control strategies

Prevent the introduction of AR parasites into farms where not already present.

The relative importance of new animal introduction and on-farm management in any change of AR status.
Identify seasons when animal introduction can be more dangerous as carriers of AH resistant worms from other farms.
Favour the entrance of susceptible worms from farms where the level of susceptibility has been previously confirmed (avoid quarantine AH treatment).
Establish and communicate best practice AH quarantine procedure.

Generate user-friendly tools to determine FEC of animals to confirm whether a drug was effective or not after quarantine treatment.
Establish local susceptible nematode strains to implement management strategies to reverse AR status of worms from animals introduced to a farm?

Pen-side diagnosis of egg counts will make AR diagnosis possible and verify effective quarantine.
Effective communication of best-practice quarantine protocols.
