Maintaining good biosecurity and good managemental practices

Great response. Thank you sir.
But, what actually cause resistant? I have been thinking on this for sometimes now. Could it be short administrative duration of the use the drug, under an ideal farm operation.
For instance, some antibiotics will say 5-7 days. Even, Lab usually recommends duration. If a farmer decided to use it for 4 days, all in the name of cutting cost.
What should a manager do in this case.

Thank you for all the contributions

Very good suggestion

To ensure responsible antibiotic use in the poultry sector, a prudent strategy is to prioritize preventative measures like biosecurity, vaccination, and improved gut health, while drastically reducing or eliminating the use of antibiotics for growth promotion or preventive mass treatment. Greater public transparency and reporting on antibiotic use are crucial for building trust and tracking progress, and the industry can ensure this doesn’t lead to an AMR crisis by focusing on alternatives, adhering to strict stewardship guidelines, and implementing robust tracking and reporting systems.

To target the environmental persistence of S. Typhimurium, the industry should implement a comprehensive biosecurity strategy focused on reducing pathogen entry and transmission, especially from persistent reservoirs like soil and dust. Key strategies include strict control of farm access, improved hygiene and sanitation in facilities and equipment, managing environmental factors like soil moisture and dust, using antimicrobial treatments in specific zones, and utilizing non-antibiotic alternatives like bacteriophages. A One Health approach that integrates animal, human, and environmental health is crucial for reducing the overall impact of the pathogen.
