Farms in Indonesia are mostly cultivated in rural areas by farmers or breeders. The livestock that is kept includes cows, bulls, goats, and sheep, while for poultry there are free-range chicken, duck, and goose. There is a common problem in animal breeding, which is nutrient deficiencies and parasites. One of the deficient nutrients is protein. Meanwhile, the dominant parasites in goats and sheep are Haemonchus contortus and Coccidia worms.

To address these problems, the Faculty of Animal Husbandry team joining in the Independent Village Development-Based Community Service coordinated by Prof. Dr. Ir. Kustantinah, DEA, and Insani Hubi Zulfa, S.Pt., M.Sc. from Veterinary Department of Vocational School UGM, along with students of Animal Science UGM and D3 Veterinary Department UGM, have carried out a community service to utilize natural anthelmintics as a practical application of research results. read more
