This study examines animal health management on smallholdings, with a focus on antimicrobial use and resistance. The project is funded by the Medical Research Foundation’s National PhD Training Programme in Antimicrobial Resistance Research and the Langford Trust and is supervised by Dr Kristen Reyher and Professor Henry Buller.

We are interested in finding out how smallholders manage their animals, particularly in relation to the diagnosis, management and treatment of disease. In collaboration with the DIAL project and OH-STAR, we aim to establish patterns of antimicrobial use and resistance on smallholdings.

We want you!

We will soon be recruiting smallholders to participate in the study.
If you would like to know more about the project or are a smallholder who is interested in participating please contact us.
