Improvements of weaned pigs barn hygiene to reduce the spread of antimicrobial resistance

Frontiers in Microbiology
The spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in animal husbandry is usually attributed to the use of antibiotics and poor hygiene and biosecurity. We therefore conducted experimental trials to improve hygiene management in weaned pig houses and assessed ...
