Paramphistomum sp. infection in buffalo of Solo Raya region has not been reported previously. This study aims to estimate the infection rate of Paramphistomum sp. infection in buffalo in Solo Raya and identify the risk factor using prospective approach and cross-sectional pilot study. A total of 59 buffalo faecal samples from 44 small scale farms in Solo Raya were subjected for sedimentation examination. The result was interpreted descriptively, and the risk factors variable were analysed using bivariate and multivariate analysis in R software ver.4.3.1. Paramphistomum sp. egg was found in 20.34% of buffalo faecal samples in Solo Raya Region. Bivariate analysis showed grass feeding and farmers knowledge related to helminthiasis clinical sign and treatment have significant association to Paramphistomum sp. infection. Based on final logistic regression model, Paramphistomum sp. infection was increased by additional grass in feed (OR 5.9, [95% CI: 1.05-32.98] (OR 0.16, [95% CI: 0.04-0.68]) but the risk was decreased by a good farmer knowledge in helminthiasis treatment OR 0.16, [95% CI: 0.04-0.68]. The results indicate that feed management and farmer knowledge should be improved. Further study to explore the parasitic disease in buffalo in Solo Raya Region is suggested.
