"Global Livestock Health Policy" is designed to provide an
understanding of the complexities of national and subnational
animal and public health policies and how those policies impact
domestic livestock industries. These policies shape domestic
disease control programs, international trade, and food safety
efforts.
This book offers public policy makers and animal health
officials in government and industry a foundation on which to
institute scientifically sound national and subnational animal
health programs; solidify infrastructures; enhance communication
between legislators, regulators, and affected parties; and expedite
international agreements for safe worldwide movement of animals and
animal products in a global free market economy.
Organized in eight free standing chapters which include case
studies, a glossary and an epilogue, this arrangement leads readers
progressively through the events and decisions underlying the
present US and global animal health policy status, lays out
challenges facing the US and other nations, describes the
components of a credible and competitive animal health
infrastructure, and puts forward strategies for achieving policies
that are adaptable to global and domestic dynamics while addressing
the multiple issues and interests bearing on animal health, animal
welfare, and food safety. The case studies contain background
information and questions for group discussions.
The book is intended for use by animal health officials;
agribusiness leaders; commodity groups; financial institutions;
legislators and their staffs; importers and exporters of animals,
animal products, biologics and pharmaceuticals; leadership of the
regulatory, academic and diagnostic sectors of the agricultural and
veterinary communities; consumers; or anyone else interested in
protection, production, processing, and distribution of animals and
related products.
