Hi guys,

I am currently working on a startup to provide a product that is a suitable alternative to antibiotics, which are facing laws banning their use in the EU and US.
I was hoping you could take a few minutes to answer five questions. Your answers will be very valuable in helping us devise a strategy that could implement such a product for affected farmers (primarily poultry).

1.) What products/procedures do you typically undertake to reduce the level of contamination in livestock?
2.) Are you required to provide samples for contamination testing?
3.) How often/much do you typically spend on feedstock products (not required to answer)?
4.) Do you know what bacteriophage is? Have you heard/interested in any phage products?
If so, would you consider purchasing a phage product as a cheaper alternative to antibiotics optimised to reduce the likelihood of bacterial resistance?
5.) Would you prefer buying a harmless disinfectant product that can be applied to 1) animal feed OR 2) water system OR 3) carcasses OR 4) all three options that targets a specific contaminating bacteria?
