No seasonal influence on the prevalence of strongylosis was observed.Similarly infections with Strongyloides, Trichuris, Moniezia and Eimeria were also found in all seasons. Kaiparamba panchayat of Thrissur district recorded the highest prevalence for strongylosis. A significant decrease (Pin University goat and sheep farm, Mannuthy was noticed during June 2000, when compared to June 1999. No influence of sex was observed on the prevalence of strongylosis in goats. Haematological examination of strongyle infected goats, revealed a significant change (P<0.05) in the mean values of PCY and eosinophils, when compared to that of control goats.
