Poultry products, in the form of meat and eggs, are among the most affordable sources of animal protein for humans. The widespread use of sub-therapeutic antibiotics is one of the major causes of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) emergence in poultry. The extensive use of antibiotics exerts selective pressure on the gut microbiota and promotes resistance in pathogenic microbes. To address this threat, researchers are continuously searching for suitable alternatives that inhibit pathogens like E. coli and promote production in poultry. Lactiplantibacillus plantarum, a probiotic, has gained considerable attention for its ability to maintain gut health, reduce disease risk, and enhance immune response. It can modulate gut microbiota, produce antimicrobial compounds such as bacteriocins, and disrupt signalling processes among pathogens. L. plantarum, when used in commercial feed for poultry, can enhance meat quality in broilers and egg production in layers. Despite these potential benefits, further research is needed to determine species-specific dose rates, efficacy, and stability in different field conditions. Modern delivery methods such as microencapsulation can improve its stability and viability. Furthermore, combining it with other feed additives such as phytogenic compounds and prebiotics may further enhance its activity by synergistic interaction. This review highlights the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance in birds and explores the role of L. plantarum as a probiotic in improving the health and sustainability of the poultry industry.
