The International FAO Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring (InFARM) system

The International FAO Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring (InFARM) system is a key initiative that aids countries in collecting, analyzing, and utilizing their AMR data from livestock, fisheries, and aquaculture. It fills critical gaps in AMR data within agrifood systems, enabling reliable evidence to measure the extent of AMR in animals and food at local, regional, and global scales. The system provides a roadmap for implementation and encourages FAO members to establish and strengthen operational national AMR surveillance systems.
