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.

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.

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
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.
