Liver Fluke: Dealing with A High Risk Forecast
Back in series 1 we discussed Liver Fluke but today we’re going to dive into the subject in more detail and talk about how to approach a season where the risk of liver fluke is predicted to be high. In the past many farmers would have heard the risk is high and simply reached for the drench gun - today we want to explore why that is no longer an effective option and talk about the available alternatives. Host Ben Eagle is joined by Lesley Stubbings, Independent Consultant working with SCOPS. We are also joined by John Graham-Brown from the University of Liverpool, Joe Angell a vet from Wern Vets in North Wales and farmer Alex Crossley.

Don’t Panic! Coping with a diagnosis of multi-anthelmintic resistance
In this episode we are talking about multi-anthelmintic resistance and what to do if and when this happens. You have probably heard a lot about increasing resistance to anthelmintics in recent years and there are now reports that worms on some sheep farms have resistance to more than one class of wormer. So in this episode we’ll be asking what this really means. Ben's co-host is Dr David Bartley, who is a Principal Investigator in the Disease Control Division of Moredun Research Institute. Guests include vet Emily Gascoigne who is based in Dorset and David Cotterell, the farm manager at Kingston Maurward College in Dorchester. The panel tell us what they have learned when it comes to tackling multi anthelmintic resistance on farms and how to maintain effective worm control.

Understanding and implementing a mid/late season break dose
In this episode we are talking about incorporating a Group 4 or 5 wormer as a mid to late season dose for your lambs. We’ll discuss when and how they can be best used to preserve the efficacy of all the wormer groups and why farmers shouldn’t ‘wait’ to use them.
