Summary in the original language of the document
Dairy cows grazing outside, or fed indoors with fresh grass, are increasingly infected by liver fluke, a parasitic flatworm. Losses resulting from liver fluke disease are generally underestimated, but include growth retardation, reduced resistance, lower milk production, and rejection of infected livers at the slaughterhouse.
