We explore the critical role that farm environments play in shaping AMR dynamics, particularly within the rapidly expanding poultry sector, which is growing to meet the increasing global demand for animal protein. Despite the implementation of practices aimed at reducing antimicrobial use in poultry, the continued presence of antimicrobial residues and resistant bacteria in poultry farm environments may still contribute to the persistence and spread of AMR. Current surveillance efforts primarily focus on retail meat and slaughterhouse samples, neglecting environmental reservoirs. Expanding surveillance to include farm environments is crucial to understanding AMR dynamics. We also emphasize the challenges involved in measuring AMR and suggest that integrating multiple methodologies may offer a more comprehensive understanding of AMR dynamics in farm environments.
