Nematoda strongil adalah salah satu parasit yang paling khas dari sistem pencernaan ruminansia di seluruh dunia. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui prevalensi dan faktor yang mempngaruhi tingkat infestasi cacing strongil di kabupaten Wonogiri. Dua ratus lima puluh sembilan sampel feses pedet diambil dari 221 peternak di Kabupaten Wonogiri. Faktor resiko diperoleh dari kuisioner yang diberikan kepada peternak. Infestasi strongil diukur berdasarkan metode apung (flotation method) dan metode McMaster. Asosiasi faktor diukur dengan Chi Square (χ2) dan ratio (OR). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan infestasi strongil sebesar 12,74% (33/259). Faktor yang mempengaruhi infestasi stongil adalah jenis pakan dan kualitas sinar matahari.

Strongyle nematodes are among the most characteristic parasites of the gastrointestinal system of ruminants throughout the world. Gastrointestinal parasites infections are a major problem in livestock management. The economic impact of gastrointestinal parasites result in mortality losses and reduction in growth and production and also condemnation of carcasses. The aim of this research were to measure the prevalence of strongyles investation and factors influence in Wonogiri district. Two hundred and fiveth nine of calves feces samples were collected from 221 farmers in Wonogiri district. Risk factor were observed by quisioner which gived to farmers. Strongyles investation was measured based on apung method (flotation method) and McMaster method. Factors assosiation was measured by Chi Square (χ2) and Ood Ratio (OR). Research showed that strongyle investation was 12,74% (33/259). Factors that influence strongyle investation were type of feed and sun’s rays quality.
