Opis

In SSHR, a study was designed to find out the prevalence of G. explantum. Three hundred livers of buffaloes were examined and sixty three livers were infected by G. explanatum. The prevalence of G. explanatum was 21.24 per cent. This result showed significant range of damage in buffaloes by this parasite, which in turn causes heavy economic loss in dairy industry. So it is required to take immediate steps for reduction of infectious rate.
