Lactating Antimicrobial Decision-Making on NZ Dairy Farms, and the thoughts of Dairy Farmers and Vets on Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR)

    In this short video, Tim Cameron from Puremilk, VetEnt (Te Awamutu) presents the results of a survey he conducted with Winston Mason (VetEnt Research).
     
    The survey was undertaken to uncover the attitudes towards mastitis treatments and AMR that are held by NZ vets and dairy farmers.
     
    The results of the survey show that the threat of AMR is being taken seriously, and that vets are well placed to influence further change.  
     
    The survey has been submitted to the 31st World Buiatrics Congress in Madrid, Spain, and future publication in a peer reviewed journal is planned.
