Recent legislative developments in the European Union and USA, recommendations by the World Health
Organization, initiatives taken by the food chain, and consumer concerns all point to a (voluntary) widespread ban of antibiotic feed additives for animal growth promotion. In particular,
Regulation (EC) 1831/2003 lays down provisions phasing out the authorisations of antimicrobial growth promoters (AGPs) in the European Union as from 1 January 2006.
With the ban of AGPs in
the European Union in sight and a general shift towards a search for alternative products and strategies to fill the gap, the conference strives to bring together the knowledge and experience of
the stakeholders in the feed and food chain. Antimicrobial Growth Promoters: Worldwide Ban on the Horizon?
