Control of antimicrobial resistance by the Integrated Farm System within “Farm to Fork” strategy
The project is co-financed by the Governments of the Czechia, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia through Visegrad Grants from International Visegrad Fund. The mission of the fund is to advance ideas for sustainable regional cooperation in Central Europe.
Project summary:
The project brings together research teams from Slovakia, the Czech Republic and Poland to improve a Integrated Farm System for cattle farmers in the V4 region by creating an algorithmic module designed to collect data on the occurrence of resistant bacterial pathogens in primary food production. The module will be incorporated into management of farms in all V4 countries as part of the "Farm to Fork" strategy.
