Antimicrobial resistance in livestock farming
The world’s population is growing and livestock farmers are under more pressure than ever: feeding nearly 9 billion people, preventing disease outbreaks, keeping animals healthy, and protecting the environment. At the same time, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is becoming one of the greatest threats to health. AMR occurs when antibiotics no longer work against bacteria.
A major cause? Excessive use of antibiotics in professional livestock farming, which could make AMR the leading cause of death, overtaking cancer.
That’s why MS Schippers is committed to improving hygiene in livestock farming. Better hygiene means less need for antibiotics, healthier animals, and more profitable farms. We achieve this by developing knowledge, services and products to raise hygiene standards worldwide.
Start small. Think big. Let hygiene do the hard work!
What is AMR ?
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) occurs when microorganisms develop resistance to antibiotics, reducing the effectiveness of medication and making diseases more difficult to treat. Your commitment to hygiene and preventive care plays a key role in reducing this resistance and protecting the health of your livestock.
