The Faculty of Agriculture at Universitas Gadjah Mada (Faperta UGM), led by Prof. Dr. Ir. Siti Subandiyah, M.Agr.Sc., has established a research collaboration with the Finnish Multidisciplinary Centre of Excellence in Antimicrobial Resistance Research (FIMAR), under the leadership of Prof. Marko Virta. This partnership focuses on the pressing issue of Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) in agriculture and its sociological impacts, particularly within the Special Region of Yogyakarta. AMR is a growing global concern where microorganisms become resistant to antimicrobials, including antibiotics.

The study therefore aims to investigate how AMR influences agricultural practices and community life across urban, suburban, and rural settings. read more
