Summary: A tool for monitoring the use of antibiotics in poultry farms
The objective of the RefA²vi project is to build a tool for monitoring the use of antibiotics in livestock poultry, allowing industry professionals to have precise and reliable national references, expressed by the through one or more indicators in accordance with national and European recommendations.
It’s about:
• for farmers: to situate the level of use of antibiotics in their farms and its evolution;

Significant Impact Group(s): AMU reduction strategies \ Monitoring and surveillance \ Antibiotic use

Species targeted: Rabbit; Pigs; Poultry;
Summary: Sanders and Ceva joined forces to launch Indic@Vet:
Indic @ Vet is an innovative and unique tool for monitoring the consumption of antibiotics in rabbit, meat poultry and egg and pig farming, developed by the company DBM for SANDERS in partnership with the French veterinary laboratory Ceva.
Indic @ Vet makes it possible to objectify, measure and enhance the actions put in place to reduce the use of antibiotics, to compare changes by production, sector or breeder, and with French or European benchmarks. It collects and correlates production data on the one hand, and data on prescriptions from volunteer veterinarians or breeders on the other. Based on drug consumption data and official calculation methods, a follow-up calculation of antibiotic consumption is carried out in order to view the official French and European indicators (mg / kg, ALEA, DDDvet, DCDvet) for each quarter or each batch of animals.

Species targeted: Dairy; Age: Adult;

Summary: Pruex – additives ‘animal house stabaliser’ and ‘Water cleaner’
Ensuring that animals get clean water that’s not dominated by infection causing bacteria is essential in the fight against disease and majorly influences the need to treat sick animals with antibiotics.
Disease instances such as mastitis, foul of the foot, calf scour and pneumonia have all reduced significantly on this Scottish dairy unit since they have applied Pruex protocols with the aim of ensuring; dry bedding, clean air, feet and water.

David Finlay discusses what they have observed since they have worked with Pruex with the objective of reducing the environmental challenge their animals face from disease causing agents.
