Parasite Management for Natural and Organic Poultry: Coccidiosis PDF Print E-mail
Saturday, 28 June 2008

Both small and large poultry producers are interested in the sustainable management of the parasitic
disease coccidiosis. This publication provides information on its life cycle, transmission in free-range
production, management in the brooder and on pasture, natural treatments, drugs, and vaccines. On
a small scale, coccidiosis can be handled without medication by careful management, especially during
brooding, and adequate pasture rotation; however, on a larger scale, it is more difficult and vaccines
are an important alternative to drugs in organic production. References and further information
follow the narrative.
