Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations's video: Reducing the need for antimicrobials by improving animal husbandry practices

Antimicrobials play a critical role in treating diseases in both aquatic and terrestrial food-producing animals, as well as in crops. They contribute to productive and sustainable agrifood systems, supporting the countless livelihoods that depend on them worldwide. When overused or misused, however, antimicrobials can contribute to a rise in antimicrobial resistance (AMR). To address this issue, FAO in Zambia has trained farmers to improve animal husbandry practices and reduce the need for antimicrobials in agrifood systems. This intervention is being implemented through the Farmer Field School approach with the support of the Fleming Fund.
