Abstract
In most rural villages of Rampur District of Uttar Pradesh, poultry are left to scavenge around housing compounds during the daytime to obtain whatever feed they may be able to find in the environment, often offal, insects or seeds. Owing to these free range and scavenging habits, traditional village poultry are in permanent contact with soil and insects (Pandeyet al. 1992). Indian soils, especially when humid and warm, may serve as an important reservoir and transmission site for external larval stages of helminthes. Similarly, any insects that may act as vectors for helminths are also favored by such climatic conditions.
