Regulatory agencies are looking at Salmonella reduction as a way to improve overall food chain safety and subsequently help reduce Salmonellosis as a public health concern. Salmonella in poultry originates preharvest and can proliferate at farms without a comprehensive pathogen reduction strategy. This is where poultry producers and live operations managers play a crucial role in Salmonella control before the birds arrive at the processing plant. 

Integrated poultry companies can help reduce Salmonella by using proven products, best management practices and expertise in a holistic approach that includes vaccines, insecticides and feed ingredients.
