The EU finally clamps down on the excessive use of antibiotics in farming - Molly Scott Cato MEP
Channel: Molly MEP
Date: 2018-06-20

Molly explains two important pieces of EU legislation on veterinary medicinal products and medicated feed which significantly tighten the rules on the use of antibiotics in farming. This means that no farmer will be able to give their animals antibiotics as a preventative measure if there is no sign of disease. Instead, antibiotics can only  be given as a last resort and after veterinary tests. Find out more about Molly's work on agricultural policy at http://mollymep.org.uk/
