Assessment of the Exposure of Turkey Farmers to Antimicrobial Resistance Associated with Working Practices

Abstract: The objective of the present study was the identification of farming practices in the production of turkeys for human consumption, and their ranking in terms of the occupational probability of exposure to antimicrobial resistant (AMR) bacteria, for farm workers. We gathered evidence and data from scientific literature, on risk factors for AMR in farmers, and on the prevalence of those hazards across farming phases. We administered semi-structured interviews to public and private veterinarians in Northern Italy… Show more

“…Managing livestock feces involves protecting areas by covering storage containers [68]. Other methods include relocating feces during the summer season [80], transferring the collected samples into specific containers or rooms [81], grinding after naturally drying for 100 days [82], and adding straw and sawdust [83,84]. Fecal contamination can be controlled through anaerobic digestion processes conducted in slurry pits for conversion into biogas and liquid manure [68,85,86], composting to obtain solid manure [87], and the conversion of feces into biochar [88].…”
