Worms

SCOPS, with the backing and support of the Moredun Research Institute, the National Sheep Association and the Sheep Veterinary Society, has issued a letter to the sheep sector with renewed advice to farmers to include the newer group 4 and 5 wormers in their worm control plans now.

Sheep farmers are being urged to incorporate new actives into worming programmes as part of an initiative to support crucial productivity metrics and help slow the rate of anthelmintic resistance.
