Table 2.

The change in predicted pasture contamination (numbers of infective larvae on pasture) of two farms in southwestern England contributed by resistant ewes (low estimated breeding value) under historic climatic conditions, and susceptible (high estimated breeding value) and resistant (low estimated breeding value) ewes under a future climate change scenario, compared with a baseline of susceptible ewes (high estimated breeding value) under historic climate conditions.

Historic climatic conditions
2080s (RCP8.5 climate change scenario)
Species High EBV Low EBV High EBV Low EBV
Haemonchus contortus N/A (baseline) −37.77% +69.20% +9.01%
Teladorsagia circumcincta N/A (baseline) −33.50% +47.14% +4.73%
