are endemic in pasture-based ruminant, poultry and swine production systems, where animals are more exposed to contaminated environments [2][3]. Their presence negatively affects animal health by impairing gastrointestinal integrity, inducing anemia, and reducing voluntary feed intake.  <\/p><p>\ud83c\udf3f <strong>In grazing cows, sheep and goats<\/strong>, gastrointestinal worms leads to decreased growth rates, reduced milk yield, and impaired reproductive performance [1][2].<\/p><p>\ud83c\udf3f <strong>In free-range laying hens<\/strong>, nematode infections can impair nutrient absorption, damage intestinal mucosa, and reduce feed efficiency, ultimately leading to slower growth, decreased egg production, and increased susceptibility to secondary infections [5][6]. <\/p><p>\ud83c\udf3f <strong>In pigs<\/strong>, roundworms can result in reduced feed conversion efficiency, impaired weight gain, liver lesions (\u201cmilk spots\u201d), and respiratory signs during larval migration. Even subclinical infections are associated with decreased performance and increased variability within batches, directly affecting production efficiency [7][8].  <\/p><h3><strong>Most important nematode species<\/strong><\/h3><p><strong>Cattle: <\/strong>Ostertagia ostertagi and Cooperia oncophora<br\/><strong>Small ruminants:<\/strong> Haemonchus contortus and Teladorsagia circumcincta<br\/><strong>Poultry: <\/strong>Ascaridia galli, Heterakis gallinarum, and Capillaria spp.<br\/><strong>Swine:<\/strong> Ascaris suum<\/p><p>The <strong>economic burden<\/strong> is substantial across species. Parasitism in beef cattle results in global losses of billions of US dollars annually due to reduced productivity and carcass value [3]. In Europe, the annual cost of cattle helminth infections, including GIN, is estimated at \u20ac1.0\u20132.7 billion, with approximately 81% attributed to production losses rather than treatment costs [2]. Even moderate infection levels are associated with significant reductions in weight gain, directly impacting profitability at farm level [1].    <\/p><p>The widespread emergence of <strong>anthelmintic resistance<\/strong> further compounds the issue. Long-term use of chemical dewormers has led to reduced efficacy across multiple drug classes, emphasizing the need for more sustainable and integrated parasite control strategies [4]. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2609731 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"2609731\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-81ea3bc elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"81ea3bc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2d54df3 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"2d54df3\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e43bfe3 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"e43bfe3\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5ac773a elementor-position-top elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-box\" data-id=\"5ac773a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-box-wrapper\"><figure class=\"elementor-image-box-img\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dostofarm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/elementor\/thumbs\/Dosto-Illus-Equisolvan-3Oregano-1-rpf5bsjhzpiagb9lmk794yeij2mlw1vfhyw2jde3wg.webp\" title=\"Dosto-Illus-Equisolvan-3Oregano\" alt=\"Illustration: Oregano\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"elementor-image-box-content\"><h3 class=\"elementor-image-box-title\">Oregano Oil<\/h3><p class=\"elementor-image-box-description\">Oregano essential oil is rich in phenolic compounds, which disrupt parasite cell membranes.
