        abstract = {A cross-sectional study was conducted in and around Kombolcha from October 2017 to April 2018 to determine the prevalence of gastro-intestinal helminthes parasites in cattle. A total of 384 randomly selected cattle were sampled and examined using standard coprological procedure. The overall prevalence was 39.8 of gastrointestinal (GI) helminthes and the prevalent helminthes eggs identified were 15.6 Paramphistomum species (spp), 10.4 strongly type eggs, 8.6 Fasciola spp., 3.1 Trichuris species and 2.1 Toxocaraspecies. This result indicated the highest prevalence of Paramphistomum spp. eggs than other helminthes egg and the lowest prevalence of Toxocara species egg. There was statistically significant difference among the age groups in paramphistomum and strongly infection ({\ensuremath{\chi}}2=24.960, p{$\leq$}0.001) and ({\ensuremath{\chi}}2=17.047, p{$\leq$}0.001) respectively. Higher prevalence rate was shown in 2-5 years age of cattle. Between body conditions there was also significant (p{$\leq$}0.000 and p{$\leq$}0.013) difference in paramphistomum and strongly and which was higher in moderate animals and lower in animals with good body condition. Sex had no significant effect on the prevalence of helminthes parasite, except for strongly type of egg. The present study revealed that there is high prevalence of GI helminthes infection in cattle in the study area. Therefore, strategic prevention should be advocated to prevent the problem in and around Kombolcha. {\copyright} 2020.},
