This study aims to look at the degree of gastrointestinal the nematodes infestations in cattle based on differences in topography and the influence of age groups. Research using Chi-kwandrat analysis using bovine faecal samples each, 150 bags of highlands and lowlands are divided into 3 age groups of 0-6 months, 7-12 months and > 24 months. Samples tested positive when gastrointestinal nematode worm eggs. The degree of infestation of 22% upland and lowland 66.7%. There is a noticeable difference (P <0.05) higher prevalence lowlands. Intensity eggs per gram of feces (TPGT) age groups using analysis of T Test matches plateau 0-7 months age group by 32%, 22% 7-12 months and> 12 months of 12%. Occurs real difference (P <0.05) to the age group, younger age and higher plains showing results 0-6 month age group by 58%, age 7-12 months by 66% and the group> 12 at 76% there is a difference significantly (P <0.05) between the age groups, adult higher than the young.Keywords: the gastrointestinal nematodes, highland, lowland, age group
