| Abstract | Around 14.5% of the greenhouse gases causing climate change in the environment are released by livestock excrement. Calf deworming is one technique to prevent manure dispersion in the herd as it prevents diarrhea outbreaks. To evaluate the efficacy of Carica papaya in controlling coccidiosis and strongylids a total of 18 newly weaned calves (5 - 7 months old) were randomly distributed into three treatments in the Completely Randomized Design. Treatments were: T1 Control (Amprolium); T2 pure green unripe papaya fruit juice; T3 green unripe papaya fruit juice with papaya powdered seeds. Fresh green unripe papaya fruits and ripe papaya were obtained from the local farmers of Balo-i, Lanao del Note. After thoroughly washing the fruits, the seeds from the ripe papaya were collected, sundried for three days, and manually pulverized. The unripe green papayas on the other hand were chopped, blended, and filtered using a clean cloth. The extracted juice was then added to distilled water at a 1:1 ratio. After which, 100 grams of powdered seeds were added to the juice and blended again until the desired texture was achieved. The green papaya fruit juices were given once daily for 5 consecutive days at a rate of 10 mg/kg of the animal's body weight the same dosage as the control (amprolium). The fecal examination for quantitative and qualitative identification of internal parasite present was done during the days 0, 5, 7, and 21 post-incubation treatments. All the data gathered were analyzed using One-Way Anova run-in SPSS version 20. Results revealed that green unripe papaya fruit juice with or without added papaya powdered seeds significantly (P ? 0.05) expelled higher counts of coccidia compared to the control. Efficiency analysis revealed that pure unripe papaya juices with or without added powdered papaya seeds were 78% effective at preventing coccidia and 61% effective at getting rid of strongylids. |
