Food borne pathogens can be introduced into the soil through various sources of contamination the use of animal faecal matter as fertiliser irrigation water, poor or naturally occurring agricultural practices 1 Thus, soil is a potential source of contamination and transmission to the food produced here Foodborne pathogens can cause foodborne illness, especially through consumption of these ready to eat products 2 Scientific literature has highlighted the ability of lactic acid bacteria ( e g Pediococcus acidilactici HA 6111 2 Lactiplantibacillus plantarum R 23 and Pediococcus pentosaceus DT 016 to produce antimicrobial compounds against pathogens present in various foods 3 In order to reduce the potential contamination of these foods, the use of LABs has emerged as a potential strategy for biocontrol of foodborne pathogens 4.
