Abstract
Pig breeding is considered one of the most significant directions of livestock breeding both worldwide and in the Republic of Armenia. Various types of antibiotic drugs are used in animal husbandry, particularly in pig breeding, to promote animal growth and development. The current challenge in agriculture is antibiotic resistance, which can be caused by improper use of antibiotics in animal husbandry. In the study, 50 biological samples (feces samples) of 50 pigs were collected from three regions in the Republic of Armenia. We found Salmonella spp. in 6 (12.0 %) of 50 pig samples studied by us and in 41 (82.0 %) bacteria belonging to E-coli groups was detected. The detected bacteria belonging to the Salmonella group showed absolute 100 % resistance to 7 out of 16 antibiotics. The detected E. coli bacteria showed 100 % resistance to 7 out of 16 antibiotic types. When carrying out antibiotic treatment against salmonellosis and colibacteriosis diseases in pigs, The results of the research should be taken into account and the use of antibiotics of this type should be excluded.
