Abstract :

This article discusses the issue of antibiotic resistance in poultry birds and other farm animals, primarily due to the overuse and misuse of antibiotics in the agricultural industry. The article explains how this practice has led to the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in animals, which can then be transmitted to humans, and how it has affected the food chain. Additionally, the article explores the causes of antibiotic resistance in farm animals, including overuse, misuse, the spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, and the lack of diversity in farming practices. It also suggests possible solutions such as reducing antibiotic use, promoting animal health, improving farming practices, and alternatives to antibiotics such as probiotics, prebiotics, antimicrobial peptides, hybrid Peptides and phytogenics
