Global Trends in Antimicrobial Use in Food-Producing Animals: 2020 to 2030
Use of antimicrobials in farming has enabled the growth of intensive animal production and helped in meeting the global increase in demand for animal protein. However, the widespread use of veterinary antimicrobials drives antimicrobial resistance, with important consequences for animal health, and potentially human health. National level reporting of antimicrobial use should be encouraged to better evaluate the impact of national policies on antimicrobial use levels.
