Economic Impact of a Ban on the Use of Over-the-Counter Antibiotics in U.S. Swine Rations AgEcon
Hayes, Dermot J.; Jensen, Helen H.; Backstrom, Lennart; Fabiosa, Jacinto F..
Antibiotic drugs are currently used in 90 percent of starter feeds, 75 percent of grower feeds, more than 50 percent of finishing feeds and at least 20 percent of sow feeds (USDA/APHIS). A ban on the use of feed-grade antibiotics would lead to changes in production processes and practices in production of pork, and hence would have an economic impact on the U.S. pork industry and pork market. This study considers the economic effects of a ban in pork production, with no change of regulation on other meats. The analysis uses a set of technical assumptions that are based in large part on a historical analysis of how the Swedish ban influenced the Swedish pork industry to anticipate the potential economic effects. A range of cases is examined. The cases use...

ECONOMIC IMPACT OF A BAN ON THE USE OF OVER THE COUNTER ANTIBIOTICS IN U.S. SWINE RATIONS AgEcon
Hayes, Dermot J.; Jensen, Helen H.; Backstrom, Lennart; Fabiosa, Jacinto F..
The U.S. pork industry routinely adds antibiotics to rations of weaned pigs both to prevent illness before symptoms emerge and to increase growth rates. The European Union (EU) is in the process of restricting feed use of antibiotics, and the U.S. is currently reviewing the practice. The strategic issue facing U.S. pork producers is whether another food safety dispute with the EU is worthwhile. This paper evaluates the economic impact of such a ban in the U.S. The analysis uses a set of technical assumptions derived from the experience of a similar ban in Sweden and finds such a ban would increase production costs per head between $5.24 and $6.05; net profit would decline $0.79 per head. On the consumer side, the effects of a ban would raise the...
