| Summary: | Identifies the various forms of economic loss due to ovine fascioliasis in tropical Africa; suggests a method for estimating the losses and an analytical framework for evaluating alternative management interventions; recommends that the design of biological experiments should be more comprehensive so as to generate the necessary data for economic assessment and analysis; and assesses the implications of this major constraint to increased sheep production in the Ethiopian highlands. |
