The volumes of distribution of antimicrobial feed additives, based on surveys by the Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center and by the Japan Scientific Feeds Association, are indicated in Table. While the volume of such additives distributed remained at more or less the same level in the period 2013 to 2016, ranging between 216.4 t and 235.1 t, comparisons among the different types of antimicrobials showed an upward trend in the distribution of polyethers.
