Access to animal health services and drugs, and practices and knowledge related to antimicrobial resistance, among Vietnamese chicken farmers

Antibiotic use in livestock production is extensive globally, and it is generally accepted that antibiotic use is closely linked to the development of antimicrobial resistance. To increase the understanding of what drives antibiotic use on farm level within small- and medium-scale chicken farming in Vietnam, a survey-based study was performed among 305 chicken farmers in Thai Nguyen province in northern Vietnam. The questionnaire contained 102 questions concerning several aspects. Access to animal health services and veterinary drugs was investigated, as well as farmers' routines and practices related to antibiotic use and disease prevention. The farmers' knowledge about antibiotics and resistance development and spread was also evaluated. The dataset consists of 306 rows and 187 columns. Variable names and answers are coded and explanations can be found in a separate file, "Chicken farm KAP_Vietnam_2023_explanations". The questionnaire can be found in the file "Chicken farm KAP_Vietnam_2023_questionnaire".
