The objective of this study was to investigate the development of S. Infantis AMR during the broiler growing period, according to density and ventilation management. For this purpose, two different environmental farm conditions, commercial farm conditions (CFC) (house 1) and optimal farm conditions (OFC) (house 2), were evaluated. For CFC, chicks were housed at 35 kg/m2 density, and non-optimal parameters of ventilation were applied (allowing a maximum concentration of ammonia of 25 ppm). While in OFC, the animals were housed in low density at 17 kg/m2, and ventilation was provided within the optimal parameters (allowing a maximum concentration of ammonia of 10 ppm).

The study was performed in two identical poultry houses of an experimental poultry farm at the Center for Research and Animal Technology (CITA-IVIA, in its Spanish acronym Valencian Institute for Agrarian Research, Segorbe, Spain).
