A preliminary study of the occurrence of Nematodes among goats in two farms in Kuantan
The present study was performed as a preliminary study to determine the occurrence of gastrointestinal nematodes in two farms, Farm A and Farm B farm which both are located in Kuantan, Pahang. Present study also aims to identify the main genus of nematodes that predominantly infecting the goats as w...

The present study was performed as a preliminary study to determine the occurrence of gastrointestinal nematodes in two farms, Farm A and Farm B farm which both are located in Kuantan, Pahang. Present study also aims to identify the main genus of nematodes that predominantly infecting the goats as well as to identify the animal management systems as the possible factors of nematodes infections in the goats raised in the two farms.
Methodology and results: Faecal samples were collected per rectum from 42 goats of both farms.
