Adding Antibiotics to Chicken Feed Not Cost-Effective
For the study, Jay Graham MBA, MPH, and Ellen Silbergeld, PhD, of the Bloomberg School’s Center for a Livable Future, and John Boland, PhD, an emeritus professor in the Department of Geography and Environmental Engineering in the Johns Hopkins University Whiting School of Engineering, analyzed the marginal profits associated with drug additives in comparison to the costs of utilizing these drugs. The data used in the analysis were compiled by the Perdue Corporation, a leading broiler poultry producer. In 2002, Perdue discontinued use of antibiotics in its poultry.
