This comprehensive collection presents three peer-reviewed literature reviews on the topic of reducing antibiotic use in dairy production. In the first chapter, the regulatory control of medicines in the United Kingdom and European Union is explored, shedding light on the broader implications of antimicrobial use in dairy production and emphasizing the urgent need for a transformative shift in our perspective and approach to medicine usage. The chapter also presents potential future changes in medicine prescribing practices within the dairy industry.

The second chapter delves into recent advancements in disease prevention strategies for dairy cattle, focusing on bovine respiratory disease as a model. Through an in-depth investigation of the complex interactions between the host, environment, and pathogens, valuable insights are gained that can be utilized to develop a comprehensive prevention platform for various bacterial disease syndromes in dairy cattle.

The final chapter takes a holistic approach, assessing the importance of promoting digestive efficiency and productivity while simultaneously prioritizing animal health and welfare. It explores the role of probiotics in achieving these goals and reviews the extensive research conducted on the benefits and modes of action of probiotics. The chapter also highlights the significant role of probiotics in reducing antibiotic use in dairy production through improvements in areas such as pathogen control, feed efficiency, and methane production.

By presenting these comprehensive reviews, this collection provides valuable insights into the current state of knowledge and strategies for reducing antibiotic use in dairy production, contributing to the development of more sustainable and responsible agricultural practices.
