• topic: Endoparasites. Sheep farming. Flock. Sanity.

Brazilian sheep farming is an agricultural activity that although it is in a growing expansion still does not have high production of lamb homogeneously from its flock. The sanity is currently in the country one of the factors that hinder the efficiency in sheep production. Animal health should be a priority, as it acts as the foundation for successful breeding. Gastrointestinal endoparasites make each day a more complex obstacle for small ruminant professionals and producers, as such parasites are easy to spread, widely distributed, and sometimes mistakenly controlled. The negative relation in the zootechnical indices of herds that present high infestation of these microorganisms is remarkable. The present work sought through quantitative research, to evaluate the parasitic profile of the sheep herd of an experimental farm in Mineiros, Goiás,  in order to provide possible control measures for this problem. However, the results obtained may add to the knowledge of other producers in the region, in order to mitigate factors linked to low productivity due to high endoparasite infestations, so that sheep farming becomes more efficient, not only in the municipality of Mineiros, but all over Brazil
