We work with farmers, policymakers, and consumers to build a food system that’s humane, healthy, and built to last.

$1.5M deployed to farmers improving systems

The FDA now tracks antibiotic use by species
100% of egg factories now test for Salmonella
A shift from 2 to 15 of the top twenty restaurant chains now serving some meat raised without the routine use of medically important antibiotics.
43% reduction in medically important antibiotic use achieved. 27% reduction remains.
After years of advocacy by FACT and our partners, the FDA ended the use of medically important antibiotics for growth promotion in livestock. As a result, antibiotic sales fell by 43% from 2015 levels. Recent increases have eroded some of that progress, leaving use 27% below peak levels as of 2024. FACT continues to lead efforts to curb unnecessary antibiotic use in animal agriculture and safeguard the effectiveness of these critical medicines for years to come.
Together we can put an end to Factory farming and end inhumane living conditions for animals.
Help us protect the health and well-being of all.
