I ran across an excellent report that comparesd the effectiveness of garlic juice versus other "organic" deworming agents.
http://www.garlicbarrier.com/2003_SARE_Report.html The report is interesting for another reason, too. Jean Noon, the author, was awarded a SARE grant to do this research using her own flock. She is just a regular sheep person like we are. She has an informative Web site at http://www.jeannoon.com/thenoonfamilysheepfarm.html It seems to me there are some shepherds in this group who might want to consider applying for a SARE grant to help fund studies that they are already doing to answer questions about their own sheep-raising efforts.
