Thanks Dr. Pardhu and Wahab — great reminders! Regular flushing and using hydrogen peroxide-based cleaners really help maintain clean, safe water lines.

Farmer can also reduce feed intake after sunrise till sunset, make sure cold/cool water is always available, avoid overcrowding of the birds.

Excellent point — spray vaccination depends heavily on droplet size, nozzle calibration, and chick distribution to ensure uniform coverage, while in ovo offers precise dosing but requires strict machine calibration and egg viability checks to avoid hatch losses.

That’s a great reminder using anti-stress supplements, ensuring cool clean water, and proper ventilation are key to minimizing heat-related losses and keeping birds healthy during high temperatures.

The poultry sector should prioritize strict antibiotic stewardship through preventive health programs, improved biosecurity, and vaccination instead of routine antibiotic use. Greater transparency in antibiotic reporting is essential to build public trust, while continuous monitoring and responsible prescription use can help control diseases without fueling antimicrobial resistance (AMR).

How to Enroll for soya beverage’s and Pig production courses?

[Dr. Pardhu]

Regularly atleast once in a week to remove scale formation.

What are the various steps involved in sustainable Farming

[Dr. Pardhu]

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

[Bello Bashir]

Very good suggestion

[Bello Bashir]

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.

yes, could be done in poultry. But not commonly practiced
