Empower you to take a leadership role in antimicrobial stewardship
Satisfy the needs for transparency among the supply chain
Ensure consumer confidence in food animal products
A stewardship plan that advocates for the food animal industry
“Compliance was a big issue and old habits are difficult to break. Having protocols to follow, written jointly with the producer, made compliance much less of a concern. Many drugs were actually eliminated from our producer’s pharmacies.”
“Teachable moments were critical when discussing protocols and economics of drug usage always played a role in our discussions. We now have well thought out processes founded on a team mentality. No shooting from the hip!”
“Since implementing Food Armor drug costs are down and we are using less antibiotics, and only under approved veterinarian prescribed protocols.”
