Abstract
Authors conducted studies in 2021 at the sheep farm of Karcag Research Institute. Searching for methodologies to reduce endoparasitosis. Traditional medical application of weed roots, with a focus on tannin and inulin content were tested. Extracts from Cichorium intybus and Cichorium intybus var. foliosum were made and administered to infected ewes. Strongylus sp. eggs significantly reduced after treatment due to inulin and tannin content. Further experiments should be reveal whether dried or diluted extracts are more efficient.
