  Poultry farming remains a crucial part of the global food supply, offering affordable, nutrient-rich protein. In intensive broiler farming, enteric infections are serious. Several types of these diseases can kill chickens, slow weight gain, raise medical costs, and lower feed conversion ratios. From 2015 to 2021, broiler meat production increased by 35%, global egg production rose by 10%, the laying hen population expanded by 30%, and breeder stock grew by approximately 25%, early chick mortality rates (up to 1.8%) and enteric infections such as necrotic enteritis, which impacts 40% of flocks and has a clinical mortality rate ranging from 10% to 50%, pose significant challenges. The frequent use of antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs) has raised concerns, mainly due to the prevalence of disease outbreaks and the development of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). In response, microbial metab.. Read More»
