A retrospective study of non-typhoidal Salmonella isolation from poultry and pig farms in Nakhon Pathom and Suphan Buri provinces which was conducted during the yearsfrom 2008 to -2015. A total of 636 Salmonella isolates wasere collected from livestock and environmental samples. The isolates included 1.42% S. Typhimurium, 4.40% S. Enteritidis, and 1.26% S.Virchow; however, neither S. Infantis nor S. Hadar were found. All Salmonella isolates wasere tested for antimicrobial susceptibility and minimum inhibitory concentrations (CLSI Vet03-S2 2014, NCCLS standard). The top three drug resistances were to cephalexin, gentamicin, and amoxicillin. S. Typhimurium showed resistance rates of 100%, 100%, and 22.22% to these antibiotics, respectively; S. Enteritidis showed resistance rates of 100%, 100%, and 90.91%; and S. Virchow revealed resistance at the rates of 50%, 50%, and 12.50%, respectively. The conserved segment integrase 1 and gene cassette were found by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in all serotypes. The resistance gene of aadb, IntI1, CmlA,
