The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) is working in the region to promote the responsible use of antimicrobials from farm to fork, and to help countries address AMR in food and agriculture. With support from the USAID through OSRO/RAS/502/USA (Addressing Antimicrobial Usage in Asia’s Livestock , Aquaculture and Crop Production Systems), the FAO will convene a two-day Regional Forum on antimicrobial stewardship in agriculture on 11-12 July 2019, in Bangkok, Thailand. This event will bring together public and private sectors to discuss and identify existing challenges, potential options, and recommendations towards prudent use of antimicrobials and antimicrobial stewardship management in agriculture in Asia
