IMPACT OF PHARMACY IN AGRICULTURE
Animal Health and Veterinary Medicine
Pharmacists play a crucial role in the development, formulation, and distribution of medications for livestock and companion animals. With specialized knowledge in pharmacology and drug delivery systems, pharmacists can contribute to improving animal health.

Pharmaceutical companies that specialize in agricultural products often employ pharmacists for research and development roles. Pharmacists can contribute to the discovery and development of new drugs, supplements and vaccines.

Consulting and Regulatory Affairs
Pharmacists with knowledge of regulatory affairs can assist agricultural companies in navigating the complex regulations surrounding the use of pharmaceuticals in agriculture. They can provide guidance on compliance, labeling, and risk assessment.
