This document discusses sustainable antibiotic-free broiler meat production. It begins with a history of antibiotic use in poultry farming and the development of antibiotic resistance. Regulations in India regarding antibiotic use are outlined. Alternatives to antibiotic growth promoters that could be used include probiotics, prebiotics, organic acids, enzymes, and phytogenic feed additives. These alternatives can improve growth performance, gut health, and immune function. While consumer demand exists for antibiotic-free meat, producing it profitably remains challenging. Strict regulations and awareness programs are needed to combat antibiotic resistance and facilitate a transition to sustainable antibiotic-free broiler production.

22. Alternatives to Antibiotic Growthpromoters
• Probiotics and Prebiotics
• Organic Acids (Acidifiers)
• Amino Acids and Enzymes
• Amino Acids and Enzymes
• Phytogenic Feed Additives
23. Probiotics and Prebiotics
Probiotics are live bacteria, fungi or yeast that
cause beneficial effect on health, if it is
administered in adequate doses.
Supplement the Gastrointestinal flora.
23
Probiotics can replace antibiotics by replacing
Microbiom.
Probiotics stimulate Intestinal Enzymes
Production.
Reduce Parasitic Infection
24. Microorganism used as Probiotics:
– Lactibacillus acidofilus
– Lactiobacillus casai
– Bifidobacterium bifidum
– Aspergillus oryzae
24
Characteristirics of Good Probiotics:
– G+, acid resistance, bile resistance and
30* 109 CFU/gm
– No Pathogenic No Harmful to Host
– High Servival Rate and Multiply Fast
– Adhesive Capacity must be Fast and Firm
26. The Effect of Probiotics on Weight Gain in Animal Production
A. Lactobacillus spp. increases weight gain in broiler chicks

27. Prebiotics
Non-digestible Feed Ingredient/Supplement’ that beneficially
affects the host by selectively stimulating the growth of non-
pathogenic organisms in the gut/colon.

32. Organic Acid
Conservation agent
Organic acids are Short Chain Fatty Acids &
other carboxylic acids

Organic Acids Included in Feeds to:
Lower the pH of the Feed & Gut (Specially Upper GIT)
• Inhibiting the Growth of Pathogenic Intestinal
Microflora
• Reduces the Microflora Competing for the Host
Nutrient
• Increase in Nutrients Utilization
• Results in better Growth and Performance
33. Anti-Microbial action organic acids
Organic acid penetrates the cell
Inside the cell the acid dissociates
according to internal pH: HCOOH----
HCOO- (anion) +H+ (proton)
33
The H+ (proton) decreases pH in the cell.
The bacteria use energy to remove the
protons and dies
Results in better Growth

36. Enzymes
Non-starch polysaccharides (NSPs) like β-glucans
(barley), arabinoxylans (wheat) or pentosans (rye)
Phytate depress the utilization of vegetable phosphorus.
Exogenous enzymes like xylanases, beta-glucanases,
proteases and phytase help to:
36
(i) Increase in the rate of digestibility of diet
- Less substrate (undigested starch and protein)
available in the anterior small intestine to provide
substrate for the endogenous microflora
- Reduction in the microbial population of intestine
(Clostridium perfringens)
(ii) Better utilization of nutrients
(iii) Better growth performance
- Birds have extracted more nutrients from the diet.

India is in beginning of stage of antibiotic-free
broiler production. Although consumer are
becoming more interested in antibiotic free broiler
meet. It is tough task to produce antibiotic free
meat while making farming profitable.

Fighting against antimicrobial
resistance, awareness-building programs
must be follow on large scale.
45. Conclusions
It is scientifically proved that, Prebiotics, Probiotics, Enzymes,
Herbal Products, have good potential for alternative of
antibiotic growth promoters.

A strict regulation must be followed regarding use
of antibiotics as growth promoter by the
government.
