Healthy farm animals do not need antimicrobials

When we focus on good farming practices – such as maintaining clean and comfortable conditions, ensuring proper nutrition, and providing appropriate vaccinations – we avoid the need for antibiotics and other antimicrobials. By prioritising animal health and welfare, we can preserve the effectiveness of these medicines without compromising livestock productivity.

“I drew a sheep living its best life, the way all animals should. A politician, a protester, a farmer, and an “ordinary person” symbolize that we can all contribute. Through good consumer habits, political action, and good farming practices, we can work together to ensure that our farm animals are healthy, happy, and do not need antibiotics. Good for animals. Good for us too because this means that antibiotics are more likely to work when we need them.”
