Bangla Interview Transcripts on Poultry Practices in Dhaka and Tangail

Bangladesh provides qualitative data from 2017 interviews with poultry owners, farm workers, and market sellers in Dhaka city and rural Tangail district. The anonymized Bangla transcripts explore themes of poultry-raising practices, hygiene, waste disposal, and antibiotic use. The research aimed to understand human behaviors contributing to environmental contamination and transmission pathways of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

Use Cases
