The emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in poultry farming poses a significant threat to public health, necessitating urgent action. Alternative strategies to antibiotic can be used in poultry production, including probiotics, prebiotics, enzymes, and organic acids. Transitioning away from antibiotics requires careful consideration of economic, regulatory, and consumer-related factors. A balanced approach is essential to safeguard animal welfare, public health, and the viability of the poultry industry.
