This paper deals with the incidence of antibiotic resistance and of R plasmids in 319 Salmonella strains isolated from various samples on 7 piggeries in Taegu, Kyongbuk, Kyongnam and Chungnam and a slaughter house in Taegu during the period from May, 1984 to May, 1985. Of the 319 strains examined, 250 (78.4%) were resistant to one or more antibiotics such as ampicillin (Am), chloramphenicol (Cm), gentamicin (Gm), kanamycin (Km), sulfadimethoxine (Su), streptomycin (Sm), rifampicin (Rf) and tetracycline (Tc), and higher resistant to Su (74.9%), Sm (53.0%) and Tc (28.5%). Only two Salmonella strains isolated from A and C farms were resistant to Rf and Gm, respectively
