Abstract. This study was conducted to determine the current prevalence of nematode infections in small ruminants and the management of farms in Terengganu, Malaysia. A total of 267 faecal samples from sheep and goats were collected and examined by the Modified McMaster method, larval culture and third stage larva identification. Results revealed that the worm egg count (WEC) for nematode infections ranged between 0–26,800 e.p.g. and the distribution of the WEC was different between farms (χ2 (15) = 165.72, p<0.05). Haemonchus contortus was the dominant species observed (75.0%), followed by Trichostrongylus sp. (24.0%) and Oesophagostomum sp. (1.0%) (χ2(2, N=100)=86.06, p<0.05). The schedule for grazing management, limited grazing area and extensive usage of anthelminthic could have been the main influences of nematode infections to be severe in small ruminants. The results obtained from this study will update the status of nematode infection in small ruminants in Terengganu. This information will help the farmers and the Department of Veterinary Services to plan on treatment and management to improve the animals’ health.
