Vietnam\u2019s Antimicrobial Resistance Landscape<\/b><\/h2>\n

Vietnam\u2019s livestock sector is facing a growing threat from antimicrobial resistance (AMR), mainly caused by the misuse and overuse of antibiotics.\u00a0<\/span>At the farm level, especially among smallholders, the lack of veterinarians, limited alternatives, and weak biosecurity mean many farmers still rely heavily on antibiotics to prevent disease, often buying them from unregulated sources.<\/span><\/p>\n

This situation shows the urgent need to improve monitoring, strengthen law enforcement, and give farmers more support to reduce antimicrobial resistance, protect animal health, and ensure food safety.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
