Parasitism of poultry on farms in Côte d'Ivoire

The present study was conducted from September to October 2014 in the Abidjan and Agnibilékrou regions of Côte d'Ivoire. Its objective is to determine the prevalence and factors that may vary gastrointestinal parasitosis in poultry farms in the region. To do this, samples of droppings were taken, each consisting of a pool of five samples, four at the corners of the building and one in the middle. Overall, the infestation rate was found by coprological analysis using qualitative methods, namely sedimentation and flotation. These results were analyzed according to parameters such as the region, the type of speculation, the practice of sanitary vacuum, the monitoring of the farm by a veterinarian, the origin of the water, the contact between chickens and wild birds, the presence of rotoluve and pediluve.
