Antibiotic Stewardship - Reducing the Risks of Residue on the Dairy, Session 1
February 17, 2016
Many residue issues result from poor communication and understanding by farm workers using legally approved drugs improperly. The dairy industry will face increasing pressure to reduce or eliminate antibiotic uses. Let's be proactive.
Session 1:
Food Armor, developed by veterinarians in Wisconsin, addresses food safety and long-term proper drug use on farms. Topics include:
- Veterinarian/Client/Patient Relationship
- Drug List
- Protocols
- Standard Operating Procedures
- Records
- Veterinary Oversight
