  • poultry production in 2006

    2001: 6.99e10kg
    2004: 7.82e10kg
    2005: 8.10e10kg of poultry produced
    2006: 8.15e10kg of poultry produced

    (8.38e10 expected assuming same increase as in 2005,

    the difference of 2.3e9kg is assumed to be due to H5N1
    loss:2.3e9kg or about $1e10 (assuming $4 (?) per kg poultry)

    for 1kg of chicken-meat you need 1.8kg of poultry-food
    for 1kg of pork you need 3kg of pig-food


    EU loss could be about 2e9 Euro in 2006, I guess.

    to compare:
    EU-spendings for H5N1 research about 3e6 Euro per year !


    and that's only for the poultry-loss. Add to that loss due to
    pandemic preparedness and health risk, poultry indoors cost,...

    Shouldn't we spend more on H5N1-research ?
    I'm interested in expert panflu damage estimates
