Updated Estimates of the Costs Associated with Thirty Four Endemic Livestock Diseases in Great Britain: A Note
更新了英国34种地方性牲畜疾病的经济成本模型,使用边境价格并纳入对人类健康和动物福利的影响,发现乳腺炎、绵羊地方性流产、猪流感和沙门氏菌病分别是牛、羊、猪和家禽中成本最高的疾病。
This Note outlines the further development of a system of models for the estimation of the costs of livestock diseases first presented by Bennett (2003). The models have been developed to provide updated and improved estimates of the costs associated with 34 endemic diseases of livestock in Great Britain, using border prices and including assessments of the impact of diseases on human health and animal welfare. Results show that, of the diseases studied, mastitis has the highest costs for cattle diseases, enzootic abortion for sheep diseases, swine influenza for pig diseases and salmonellosis for poultry diseases.
