The 80/20 Rule
On a typical cattle operation, 80% of the parasites are going to be found in 20% of the animals.
If a producer is deworming their entire herd, they are wasting money on treating 80% of their animals.
Not only is money being through unnecessary treatments, but every time a dewormer is administered, resistance to that dewormer is increased in the parasite populations.
