Traditional Latvian herbal medicinal plants used to treat parasite infections of small ruminants: A review
Numerous treatment agents offering prophylaxis against livestock parasites are commercially available. However, because of increasing antiparasitic drug resistance, the increased popularity of environmentally friendly lifestyle choices, and organic farming, there is more demand for new alternatives to livestock anthelmintic control strategies and medications. It is important to develop antiparasitics that are safe, effective, inexpensive, and environmentally safe. Local, traditional herbal plants such as tansy, mugwort, wormwood, and heather may serve as treatments for intestinal parasites of sheep. This overview provides knowledge of traditional Latvian plants with antiparasitic activities to establish a database for further research to develop new herbal antiparasitic drugs. ; This study was carried out in the framework of LLU (Latvia University of Life Sciences and Technologies) internal project "Antiparasitic drug resistance in Latvian sheep farms" (No. LLU P12) and with implementation of the research project "Development of herbal plant containing medical extracts with anti-parasitic effect" funded by the Latvia Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Support Service program LAD16.2 project: The support for pilot projects and the development of new products, practices, processes and technologies. The authors are grateful to Polina Skliarevitch for helpful comments on a draft manuscript
