Abstract:

Animal diseases have excerted bad influence on farmers, consumers, domestic and animal industries. Study the economic impact of animal disease is of great importance to evaluate the extent of loss, and develop effective prevention measures. Current studies mainly involved the economic impact of animal disease on producers, consumers, animal industries, international trade, and regional economy. But studies about its influence on international trade and regional economy were less, and application of inferential statistics is not much. Compared with the international society, studies in China is lag behind. So future research should lay emphasis on influence of animal diseases to consumers, animal industries, nation and the world. We should also break through the present partial, static, theoraticle research method, and try to adhere to inter-temporal and general equilibrium theories in accordance with animal disease characteristics; and apply econometric models including spatial econometrics and epidemiology; and also pay attention to simulate and forecast economic impacts of animal diseases.
