Monitoring of antibiotic use in broiler turkey flocks in the Warmia and Mazury province in 2019–2021

Abstract

The increasing resistance of bacteria to antibiotics has obliged the EU Member States to reduce by 50% the use of antibiotics in animal production by 2030. This study was undertaken with the aim to analyse the use of antibiotics in flocks of broiler turkeys reared in the Warmia and Mazury province in a two-year period.
