Monitoring of antimicrobial resistance in agroecosystem (MAMRA) is a collaborative work conducted by Center for Biotechnology Universitas Gadjah Mada, Indonesia and Resistomap Oy, Finalnd. The use of antimicrobial agent in human and animal has been proved to imbost the AMR outbreak and threathen the global health. Only few studies focusing on the antimicrobial usage impact in agriculture land. This project aims to monitor and characterize the antimicrobial resistance gene (ARG) abundance and distribution in agriculture land.
