“…As shown in the literature, mechanical processing is less common in South Asian countries [ 19 , 37 ], though this situation is not the same in Sri Lanka [ 38 ]. In Sri Lanka, the majority of broiler birds are processed mechanically in semi-automated plants, but a significant number of wet markets, where only poultry is slaughtered, continue to exist.…”

“…According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) the majority of large, medium and small scale poultry processing operations in most parts of the globe are generally fully automated [ 18 ], but this is not the case in many Asian countries, where other methods of poultry processing are still in operation. For example in India, approximately 90% of broiler meat is still manually processed [ 19 ].…”

Broiler meat can become contaminated with Campylobacter of intestinal origin during processing. The present study aimed to identify the prevalence of Campylobacter in broiler flocks and meat contamination at retail shops, and determine the influence of semi-automated and wet market processing on Campylobacter contamination of neck skin samples. Samples were collected from semi-automated plants (n = 102) and wet markets (n = 25). From each batch of broilers, pooled caecal samples and neck skin samples were tested for Campylobacter. Broiler meat purchased from retail outlets (n = 37) was also tested. The prevalence of Campylobacter colonized broiler flocks was 67%. The contamination of meat at retail was 59%. Both semi-automated and wet market processing resulted to contaminate the broiler neck skins to the levels of 27.4% and 48%, respectively. When Campylobacter-free broiler flocks were processed in semi-automated facilities 15% (5/33) of neck skin samples became contaminated by the end of processing whereas 25% (2/8) became contaminated after wet market processing. Characterization of isolates revealed a higher proportion of C. coli compared to C. jejuni. Higher proportions of isolates were resistant to important antimicrobials. This study shows the importance of Campylobacter in poultry industry in Sri Lanka and the need for controlling antimicrobial resistance.

“…In many regions of the world, small-scale poultry operations are connected to vast market networks centralized in urban live markets. These markets can pose an enormous threat for AMR and zoonoses emergence since poultry are housed and later slaughtered within the same setting of other domestic animals and wildlife [ 228 , 229 , 230 ].…”

The emergence, spread, and persistence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) remain a pressing global health issue. Animal husbandry, in particular poultry, makes up a substantial portion of the global antimicrobial use. Despite the growing body of research evaluating the AMR within industrial farming systems, there is a gap in understanding the emergence of bacterial resistance originating from poultry within resource-limited environments. As countries continue to transition from low- to middle income countries (LMICs), there will be an increased demand for quality sources of animal protein. Further promotion of intensive poultry farming could address issues of food security, but it may also increase risks of AMR exposure to poultry, other domestic animals, wildlife, and human populations. Given that intensively raised poultry can function as animal reservoirs for AMR, surveillance is needed to evaluate the impacts on humans, other animals, and the environment. Here, we provide a comprehensive review of poultry production within low-resource settings in order to inform future small-scale poultry farming development. Future research is needed in order to understand the full extent of the epidemiology and ecology of AMR in poultry within low-resource settings.

“…In developing countries, the production of poultry meat is a combination of mechanized abattoir processing, which is to some extent regulated, and an unregulated informal sector, often using live bird markets (alternatively known as wet markets, or pluck shops). In some countries, for example, India, the proportion of chicken meat sold from freshly culled chickens at live bird markets is over 90% (Parkar et al, 2013) (http://gain.fas.usda.gov/Recent%20GAIN%20Publications/ Poultry%20and%20Poultry%20Products%20Annual%202015_New%20Delhi_In-dia_9-30-2015.pdf). Local consumer preference determines the type of retail product sold.…”

“…A few studies have reported a higher proportion of C. coli isolates being recovered in developing countries (Ansari-Lari et al, 2011;Salihu et al, 2009), than anticipated from surveys in developed countries. In addition, high levels of antimicrobial resistance have been reported in some Campylobacter isolates from developing countries (Ansari-Lari et al, 2011;Parkar et al, 2013;Carrique-Mas et al, 2014).…”
