Tackling protozoan parasites of cattle in sub-Saharan Africa

Résumé

Cattle are an incredibly valuable asset to farmers throughout the world (Fig 1). They provide power, transport, fertiliser, fuel, and nutrition. In some areas, cattle guarantee a family’s food and economic security and act as important indicators of social status. In Africa, there are estimated to be over 360 million cattle, an increase of 22% between 2010 and 2019 [1]. As the continent continues its population and economic growth, improved productivity and sustainable growth of livestock will be required to meet the demand for food while mitigating their negative impacts.
