Antimicrobial Resistance in Agriculture: Perspective, Policy and Mitigation is a valuable industrial resource that addresses complex, multi-factorial topics regarding farm, wild, companion animals, fish, and how the environment plays an important role in amplification and transmission of resistant bugs into the human food chain. Information of phenotypical and genotypical properties of each bacterial genus associated with antimicrobial resistance, transmission dynamics from different reservoirs (food animals, poultry, fishes) and control measures with alternative therapy, such as phytobiotics and nanomaterials are provided. Researchers, scientists and practitioners will find this an essential resource on the judicial use of antibiotics in animals and humans.

Dr. Indranil Samanta is an Associate Professor and Head of Veterinary Microbiology Department at the West Bengal University of Animal and Fishery Sciences, Kolkata, India. Dr. Samanta’s research focuses on Indian livestock, poultry, captive birds, and companion animals as sources of zoonotic pathogens possessing determinants of antimicrobial resistance, contaminated environment as a source of antimicrobial resistant bacteria and human behaviour related to antibiotic usage and prescription. . He has authored several research articles in peer reviewed journals and four books entitled Veterinary Bacteriology, Veterinary Mycology, Pet bird diseases and care, and Antimicrobial Resistance in Agriculture: Perspective, policy and mitigation Dr. Samiran Bandyopadhyay Samiran Bandyopadhyay is a Principal Scientist at ICAR-Indian Veterinary Research Institute. His research focuses on emergence of antimicrobial resistance in food and companion animals from eastern and north-eastern India. He is also the coordinator of animal science institutes working under Indian Network for Fisheries and Animal Antimicrobial Resistance
