Re-Thinking The Summer Drenching Program, Brown Besier
Re-Thinking The Summer Drenching Program, Brown Besier
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
The summer drenching program has provided highly effective sheep worm control in Western Australia for many years - but recent research challenges its long term sustainability.
Trial results suggest that in large parts of the State, summer drenching is the main factor leading to the development of drench resistant worms. Alternative programs less likely to lead to drench resistance will require greater monitoring of worm burdens and panning pasture moves.
The Live Sheep Export Industry, Richard Norris, Barry Richards, Tony Higgs
The Live Sheep Export Industry, Richard Norris, Barry Richards, Tony Higgs
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Australia's live sheep trade to Middle Eastern countries is an important export industry. However, about 2 per cent of the sheep die, mainly during the sea voyage. The Western Australian Department of Agriculture has conducted a major research programme to improve the health and welfare of sheep during live export. The programme has'examined many aspects of the export sheep industry, and a substantial part of it has focused on why sheep die during sea transport.
A Control Programme For Cheesy Gland In Sheep, M R. Gardiner
A Control Programme For Cheesy Gland In Sheep, M R. Gardiner
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
CASEOUS LYMPHADENITIS, or "cheesy gland" as it is usually known in Australia, is a common disease of sheep which is very important in the economics of the lamb and mutton industry.
Practical Disease Prevention In The Pig Herd, R B. Richards
Practical Disease Prevention In The Pig Herd, R B. Richards
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
DISEASES cause loss in pig production through mortality, poor growth rate and reduced food conversion efficiency.
The cost of drugs and expert advice causes further economic loss, and the dangers to public health and to other livestock in a community are serious and often-neglected considerations.
Sheep Worm Control And Lambing Time In High Rainfall Areas, F C. Wilkinson
Sheep Worm Control And Lambing Time In High Rainfall Areas, F C. Wilkinson
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Indications from a continuing sheep trial at Margaret River are that farmers in high rainfall areas could increase stocking rates and lamb growth rates by lambing in September- October rather than July-August.
The results also indicate that farmers in the area may be spending more than necessary on worm control.
Round Worms : Important Parasites Of Pigs, F C. Wilkinson
Round Worms : Important Parasites Of Pigs, F C. Wilkinson
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
ROUND WORMS are usually found in the small intestine of pigs. The adults average six to 10 inches long. They are creamy-white and cylindrical in shape, tapering to a point at both ends.
Myxomatosis : Its Decline As A Killer, C D. Gooding
Myxomatosis : Its Decline As A Killer, C D. Gooding
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
ALTHOUGH nearly every farmer in Western Australia is familiar with myxomatosis, very few landowners really understand the factor causing the disease to spread or, just as importantly, why the severity of the disease is declining.
Ovine Vibriosis : A New Cause Of Sheep Infertility, M R. Gardiner, M. E. Nairn, I. J. Miller
Ovine Vibriosis : A New Cause Of Sheep Infertility, M R. Gardiner, M. E. Nairn, I. J. Miller
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Vibrionic abortion of sheep has caused heavy losses in a number of wheatbelt flocks. In several flocks up to 50 per cent, of the ewes aborted as a result of this newly reported disease.
This article gives the history of the disease in this State, and describes the symptoms for the benefit of other farmers whose flocks may be affected. Ewes become immune after the first attack.

Antibiotics And Sterilisers In The Dairy Industry, K Needham, N. Ingleton
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
A S a consequence of the rapid advances made in all aspects of technology there are an ever increasing number of preparations becoming available to the dairy farmer, to assist both in the control of disease in his crops, pastures and animals and to maintain and enhance the quality of his dairy products.
These are—antibiotics, sterilisers, detergents, various weedicides and pesticides
Lupinosis In Sheep. 1. Laboratory Studies, M R. Gardiner, M. C. Nottle
Lupinosis In Sheep. 1. Laboratory Studies, M R. Gardiner, M. C. Nottle
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
IN earlier articles by Bennetts (1957, 1960), the clinical and pathological features of lupinosis, as seen in field outbreaks, were described.
The suggestion was made that the roughage portion of the lupin plants was responsible for the disease.
More recent observations suggest a relationship between parasitism and lupinosis.
