These farm visits, delivered by trained veterinary practitioners, will enable farmers to engage with their veterinary practitioner in the area of parasite control and the provision of best practice advice, with a view minimising the development of antiparasitic resistance. Veterinary involvement can assist in identifying non-effective treatments, reducing the frequency of treatments where necessary, and increase the capacity for monitoring and testing as part of a health plan.

To participate in the programme, PVPs must first complete training which is being offered by AHI. The training will have a focus on understanding the main factors influencing the development of resistance and farm-specific parasite control planning. The training is delivered in two stages. Stage 1 is an online module, which can be completed as a stand-alone continuing education activity. This covers diagnostics, planning, anthelmintic resistance, epidemiology and species differences in parasite risks. Stage 2 is a live in-person training focused on parasite control planning in both sheep and cattle, and now equines. Both stages must be completed for a PVP to be considered trained in order to provide the Parasite Control TASAH to cattle and sheep clients, and a separate Stage 1 and Stage 2, specifically for equine clients.
