    Abstract The assumed link between high levels of antimicrobial use on farms and selection for antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) bacteria on that farm remains difficult to prove. In the pilot study presented here, we analysed total antimicrobial use on 50 dairy farms in Austria and also collected environmental samples to ascertain whether specific AMR bacteria were present. Antimicrobial use (AMU) analysis was based on electronic veterinary treatment records over a one-year period. Faecal samples for the assessment of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing

    Abstract The prevalence of antimicrobial resistance in commensal Escherichia coli isolated from organically raised broiler flocks was compared to the prevalence in isolates from conventional flocks. From 2010 to 2014, and in 2016, resistance trends and multidrug resistance in isolates from the caecal contents of flocks from both broiler production forms were analyzed. Samples were taken in four abattoirs accounting for at least 90% of the national slaughtered broiler population. In total, 962 commensal E. coli were obtained from organically raised broiler flocks (n = 142) and from conventionally raised broiler flocks (n = 820). The mean prevalence of commensal E. coli isolates, which were fully susceptible to the antimicrobials tested, was 43.3% in organically raised broiler flocks and thus significantly higher (P < 0.001) compared to 16.7% in conventionally operated flocks. During the study period, the proportion of fully susceptible isolates increased significantly in both broiler populations. Antimicrobial resistance rates were significantly lower in commensal E. coli isolated from organic compared to conventional production regarding ciprofloxacin (33.3% versus 69.1%), nalidixic acid (33.7% versus 67.4%), sulfamethoxazole (26.7% versus 39.9%), ampicillin (19.0% versus 33.8%) and trimethoprim (12.8% versus 24.9%). Regarding tetracycline, tigecycline and ceftazidime resistance rates were slightly but not significantly higher in isolates from organic flocks (27.6% versus 25.9%; 4.0% versus 1.4%; 2.0% versus 1.9%). This fact is surprising for tetracycline, as none of the investigated organic flocks had been treated with this antimicrobial during their lifetime. No resistances were found in isolates from both production forms against colistin and meropenem, and from organic flocks against azithromycin. The annual prevalence of resistance against ciprofloxacin and nalidixic acid decreased significantly in isolates from both broiler production forms. In isolates from organic flocks, it also decreased regarding ampicillin and sulfamethoxazole. Significant increasing trends were observed in the resistance prevalence against trimethoprim and borderline significantly for ampicillin in commensal E. coli from conventional flocks. Multidrug resistance was detected at a significantly higher prevalence in isolates from conventionally raised flocks (35.1%) compared to organic flocks (22.7%). Findings from this study clearly indicate the influences of organic compared to conventional broiler production practices on the prevalence of antimicrobial resistance in commensal E. coli from broiler flocks.
