They were quickly embraced as an integral part of livestock feeding programs after their benefits were recognized. To meet the increasing demand for animal protein for human consumption, antibiotics in animal feed are also highly sought after because they enhance the quality and quantity of meat as well as growth efficiency. Antibiotic overuse, however, has led to the emergence of resistant strains and presented health risks to people. The most significant negative impact of antibiotic residues entering the food chain has been the spread of antibiotic-resistant organisms to humans due to the transportable nature of resistance. Because of these drawbacks, there are many alternate strategies suggested for combating resistance. These include vaccines, bacteriocins, antimicrobial peptides, and phage therapy, to name a few. Even though they are not yet as effective as antibiotics, they can be utilized in preventive and management strategies. Overall, the combination of suggested alternative interventions with limited antibiotic use appears to be promising in combating antimicrobial resistance. In general, antibiotic usage in animal foods should be regulated because of these adverse repercussions, along with a need to concentrate on improving animal nutrition and the production of high-quality animal products. 2026 selection and editorial matter, Arti Gupta and Ram Prasad; individual chapters, the contributors.
