Buffaloes play a major role in the agricultural economy of India. The hot and humid climatic condition of Assam is very congenital for propagation and perpetuation of nematode parasites.

For better management of these insidious parasitic problems, there is a need to understand the epidemiology of this type of parasite. The present study was envisaged to study the gastrointestinal (G.I.) nematodiosis based on faecal culture and faecal egg count.
