Selective deworming video series – less is more
Gastrointestinal nematode infections remain a significant challenge in dairy cattle. These parasites can compromise animal health, reduce milk yield, and ultimately impact farm profitability.
The rise of anthelmintic resistance, the limited availability of actives with zero milk withdrawal, and the need for more sustainable practices are pushing the dairy industry to rethink traditional blanket treatment approaches.
Why change?
Treating all cows the same is no longer the most effective—or sustainable—solution. Transitioning to selective treatment strategies, using adapted products, is key to improving herd health, optimizing milk production, slowing the development of resistance and reducing environmental impact.

Episode 1 – Why Engage in Selective Treatment for Gastrointestinal
Understand why selective deworming is key to effectively managing gastrointestinal worms in cattle. This episode explores how targeted treatment benefits animal well-being while supporting sustainable dairy production.
Episode 2 – How to Choose the Right Cows for Selective Treatment
Implementing selective treatment starts with identifying the right cows to treat. In this episode, you get practical guidelines and expert tips to help personalize your deworming plan and maximize treatment efficiency.
Episode 3 – Engage in Selective Treatment: Visit to a Farm Where 100% of Cows Are Dewormed
Is treating every cow really the most effective strategy? This episode takes you to a farm where 100% of the herd is dewormed and explores how a sift to a selective approach could improve productivity and sustainability.
Episode 4 – Engage in Selective Treatment: Visit to a Farm Where Cows Are Rarely Dewormed
What are the risks of minimal parasite control? In this episode we visit a farm where deworming is rarely used. Learn how introducing a selective approach could offer a better balance between animal health and long-term farm outcomes.
Episode 5 – Engage in Selective Treatment: Visit to a Farm Where Some Cows Are Dewormed
This episode features a farm already applying selective deworming based on the farmer’s experience. Discover how integrating evidence-based methods can further improve results and optimize herd management.
