The present study was carried out to know the prevalence of helminth infection and anthelmintic resistance in six districts of the Kalyana-Karnataka region of Karnataka. A total of 712 faecal samples from sheep (380) and goats (332) were collected and processed by standard faecal floatation and sedimentation techniques. Among small ruminants an overall prevalence of gastrointestinal parasites 69.66% with significant differences (P<0.05) among sheep(68.6) and goats (70.7%) with no significant (P>0.05) difference between parasite species as well as districts. Infection with single parasite species (51.96%) was more commonly observed than multiple species infections (17.69%). The most prevalent parasites were strongyles (31.74%) followed by Eimeria spp. (7.44%), Strongyloides papillosus (5.05%), Trichuris ovis (3.65%), amphistomes (1.40%), Moniezia spp. (1.26%), Buxtonella sulcata (0.98 %) and Schistosoma indicum (0.42 %). The study on the efficacy of anthelmintic by egg hatch assay (EHA) showed that the LD50 of thiabendazole 0.114-0.119μg/mL. Results reflected the development of resistance of GI nematodes to benzimidazoles in sheep and goats. Similarly, the EHA was performed to determine the in vitro efficacy of ivermectin (IVM) against nematode eggs. The results revealed that ivermectin did not affect embryo growth during the egg stage.
