Abstract
Intro: Irrational and imprudent antimicrobial usage (AMU) in poultry is considered a key driver of antimicrobial residue (AR)development and antimicrobial resistance (AMR), which has become a significant health hazard in animals and humans. The extensive use of antimicrobials in the intensified commercial chicken industries, supplying the major animal proteins in Bangladesh, is playing a crucial role in the food value chain. Therefore, we conducted this study to understand the patterns of AMU and their associated factors in commercial chicken farms in Bangladesh.
