Though a variety of bacteria are responsible for numerous poultry diseases worldwide, only some of them cause enormous financial losses on daily basis. Those ubiquitous economic pests, which are transmissible via the feed, are addressed in this paper. Clinical entities encompass general septic state and infections and/or intoxications of the digestive system. Prevention of the infection in the flock is essential, overwhelming the effects of successful medicamentous therapy. Antimicrobials may reduce the mortality and morbidity; however, their application is not always economically justified. The problems are further aggravated by escalating and highly frequent multiple resistances to almost all known antibiotic categories. In that respect, global tendencies implicate reduction of massive antibiotic therapy and a shift towards effective prevention measures and introduction of plant extracts as feed supplementation. Such an approach could considerably reduce the incidence of leading bacterial infections in poultry caused by infective agents from the feed, thus decreasing the rate of disease outbreaks. Numerous plant preparations proved effective against Salmonella spp., Escherichia coli, Pasteurella multocida, Staphylococcus aureus and Clostridium perfringens, which are the most important pathogens causing enormous financial losses worldwide. It is necessary to formulate a combination of synergistic preparations effective against the entire spectrum of aforementioned organisms.
