Which of the following sentences from the

section "The Background" BEST reflects the main

idea that farming practices have contributed to

antibiotic resistance in people?

The antibiotic era in animal agriculture

began in 1946, when researchers noted that

chickens fed low doses of the drugs grew,

faster.

Antibiotics have become a crucial part of

factory farming - animals in cramped

conditions would be vulnerable to infections

without daily doses of the drugs.

For decades, the livestock and

pharmaceutical industries successfully

fended off regulation, arguing that little

correlation could be drawn between

antibiotics used in agriculture and resistant

infections in humans.
