Synthesis workshop on resourcing projects around antibiotics in agriculture
On 23 October 2024, a synthesis workshop was held on ongoing and recently completed resourcing projects run by the Federal Office for Agriculture (FOAG) around the topic of antibiotics in agriculture. The project organisations of the three resourcing projects «Sanierung der von Staphylokokkus aureus Genotyp B (SAGB) verursachten Mastitis» (cleaning up mastitis caused by Staphylococcus aureus genotype B (SAGB), «Kälbergesundheitsdienst» (calf health service) and «Kometian» exchanged experiences, lessons learned and challenges for the future. The aim was to find out how the positive results of the individual resourcing projects can be disseminated and thus generate a long-term impact in terms of reducing the need for antibiotics beyond the duration of the resourcing projects.
