Goats are very important for the economy of the semiarid region of northeastern Brazil; however, the high frequency of parasitism by gastrintestinal nematodes (GIN) and the increase of anthelmintic resistance are threatening goat industry in the region. In this paper we review the control strategies for GIN in goats including: 1) the differences between goats and sheep to GIN infections; 2) important epidemiological aspects to consider in the control; and 3) technologies to be used for integrated control of GIN and anti-helmintic resistance.
