<![CDATA[Public consumption of chicken meat, especially broiler and duck, continues to increase. Various efforts have been taken by farmers to increase their production by increasing the quantity of their livestock and improving livestock management. The government has banned the use of antibiotics under Law no. 41 of 2014. The existence of this law needs to be evaluated on livestock products produced. This study aims to determine the presence of antibiotic residues and also to determine the level of awareness of farmers to antibiotic residues in broiler chicken and duck meat in the Selemadeg Timur Tabanan of ??Bali. This research is a descriptive study by detecting samples of chicken and duck meat using bioassays at BBVet Denpasar and by giving questionnaires to farmer. The number of samples was 10 samples of chicken meat, 2 samples of duck meat, and 15 samples kuesioner. Based on the results of the bioassay test, it was found that all samples were negative for residues of tetracycline antibiotics, aminoglycosides, macrolides, and penicillin. In addition, based on the results of questionnaire data, the level of public awareness of the use of antibiotics and the dangers of antibiotic residues in meat is very high. So that chicken meat in Selemadeg Timur ??Tabanan Bali is still said to be safe for consumption. However, there is still a need for supervision from the government and veterinarians regarding the use of antibiotics so that the quality of livestock products is maintained.]]>
