%X The aim of the present study is to determine contamination levels of cattle from two villages (Boukallou and Dladla) of Settat areas and their milk production after the use of wastewater. A herd of sixteen head of cattle was randomly selected in each douar and monthly in the morning faecal samples were collected directly from natural defecation over a period of 10 months. Samples (n = 105) were analyzed by macroscopic and microscopic coprology. The technique adopted for microscopic coprology is flotation technique. Milk samples (n = 21) were also collected in the morning and subjected to bacteriological analysis. The coprology qualitative analysis performed reveals protozoa, helminths and trichostrongyles infection. The bacteriological analysis of milk showed that 35% of samples tested had insufficient quality. The Salmonella and Listeria monocytogenes were not detected.
