Abstract

This article proposes a tailored approach to reduce antimicrobial use (AMU) in livestock among EU countries, in alignment with the EU Farm-to-Fork initiative that targets a 50 per cent reduction by 2030. We argue against a one-size-fits-all target and introduce country-specific targets based on individual factors such as current antimicrobial sales, GDP, and livestock and human densities. Using data from the European Surveillance of Veterinary Antimicrobial Consumption (ESVAC), the article identifies countries with high densities of animals and humans, as well as high levels of AMU per livestock unit, such as Germany, Belgium, Italy, Spain and Poland, as needing to prioritise greater reduction efforts. The article also underlines the need for a more precise EU-level indicator of AMU, as sales do not directly represent use. It suggests that specific targets and regulations should apply to antimicrobials classified as ‘Highest Priority Critically Important Antimicrobials’ by the WHO. The article recommends extending these targets to different sectors and even individual farms, with high-consumption sectors and poorly performing farms making greater efforts. By considering these factors, the article aims to provide a fair and effective approach to reducing AMU, mitigate the risks associated with antimicrobial resistance, and contribute to achieving the Farm-to-Fork strategy AMU reduction target.

确定成员国的具体目标,以实现欧盟到 2030 年将兽用抗菌药销售量减少 50%的目标 确定成员国的具体目标,以实现欧盟的目标、到 2030 年将抗菌兽药产品的销售量减少 50
本文根据欧盟 "从农场到餐桌"(Farm-to-Fork)倡议提出的到 2030 年减少 50% 牲畜抗菌药物使用量的目标,提出了欧盟国家减少牲畜抗菌药物使用量(AMU)的定制方法。我们反对 "一刀切 "的目标,而是根据当前的抗菌药销售量、国内生产总值以及牲畜和人类密度等个别因素,提出了针对具体国家的目标。文章利用欧洲兽医抗菌药消费监测(ESVAC)的数据,指出德国、比利时、意大利、西班牙和波兰等人畜密度高、单位牲畜抗菌药使用量高的国家需要优先加大削减力度。文章还强调,由于销售量并不直接代表使用量,因此需要一个更精确的欧盟级 AMU 指标。文章建议,具体目标和法规应适用于被世界卫生组织列为 "最高优先级、极其重要的抗菌药物 "的抗菌药物。文章建议将这些目标扩展到不同部门甚至单个农场,高消费部门和表现不佳的农场应做出更大努力。通过考虑这些因素,文章旨在提供一种公平有效的方法来减少 AMU,降低与抗菌药耐药性相关的风险,并为实现 "从农场到餐桌 "战略的 AMU 减少目标做出贡献。

期刊介绍: EuroChoices is a full colour, peer reviewed, outreach journal of topical European agri-food and rural resource issues, published three times a year in April, August and December. Its main aim is to bring current research and policy deliberations on agri-food and rural resource issues to a wide readership, both technical & non-technical. The need for this is clear - there are great changes afoot in the European and global agri-food industries and rural areas, which are of enormous impact and concern to society. The issues which underlie present deliberations in the policy and private sectors are complex and, until now, normally expressed in impenetrable technical language.
