Spatiotemporal trends in cattle lungworm disease ( <i>Dictyocaulus viviparus</i> ) in Great Britain from 1975 to 2014

Abstract

The apparent spatiotemporal changes in lungworm epidemiology pose new challenges to cattle farmers in Great Britain. Farmers and veterinarians need to remain vigilant for this disease and consider it as a possible cause for milk production losses at any time of the year. Awareness levels may have to be raised particularly in northern England and Scotland.
