Journal Title: The Journal of Phytopharmacology - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 3
Abstract
Bengal goats reared in semi-intensive system by marginal tribal farmers of West Bengal, India are naturally infested with endoparasites due to different managemental and climatic factors. Easily available ethnoveterinary herbs like Swertia chirata, Piper Nigrum and Nigella sativa mixture were assessed as an alternative anthelminthic approach compared with market available dewormers in parasite infested goat in field level. The study based on 36 bengal goats revealed that the herbal mixture is as effective as chemical dewormer to reduce the parasitic load. Moreover, the total protein and AST value is better in herbal treated goats.
