Governments around the world are actively working to reduce the use of antibiotics in livestock production to combat the rise of antibiotic resistance—a growing public health concern that can impact both animals and humans. Legislation targeting the reduction of prophylactic antibiotic use in the food chain is rapidly becoming a reality, making it more important than ever for producers to strengthen their biosecurity practices.
Virkon® S plays a critical role in this effort. With proven efficacy against a wide range of viruses and bacteria in real-world biosecurity challenges, it helps reduce the spread of disease, thereby minimizing the reliance on antibiotics. Recognized globally and selected by governments as a disinfectant of choice, Virkon® S continues to lead the way in biosecurity best practices, supporting healthier livestock and safer food systems.
