  Conducting a benefit‐cost analysis of NAIS adoption in the equine  industry was a significant challenge.  Even published data on horse  population in the United States have a wide range of estimates including  from around five million to more than nine million horses.  Collecting  accurate equine data is a challenge because a considerable number of  horse owners are not included in USDA surveys as many are not farm  operations.  As a result, we rely heavily on surveys and private industry  data sources for information on equine population, animal movement  and comingling activities, and industry characteristics in our analysis.   Because of substantial data limitations in the equine industry analysis,  unlike our analysis for livestock and poultry species, we did not estimate  separate costs for varying NAIS adoption rates.  Our estimates are for  100% of equine owners to adopt each NAIS practice.  Rough estimates of  varying adoption rates could be made by taking an adoption percentage  times the 100% adoption cost.     Direct net present value of cost of 100% adoption of premises  registration by equine owners is estimated at $2.7 million annually;  adoption of individual horse micro‐chipping is $34.5 million; and animal  tracing is $38.7 million.  The total annual estimated net present value of  direct cost of 100% adoption of all three NAIS activities is $75.9 million  per year.    Benefits of NAIS adoption in the equine industry are potentially  numerous.  However, the largest benefits appear to be from animal  health surveillance, potential endemic disease eradication, and export  market access in the event of a major equine disease outbreak.  Annual  costs of Equine Infectious Anemia (EIA) testing alone are $57.5 million  (75% of total NAIS adoption costs).  The equine export market represents  some $460 million annually.  Any major equine disease outbreak would  adversely affect the equine export market.  Though our analysis is unable  to definitively conclude whether the benefits of full NAIS adoption in the  equine industry exceed adoption costs, if adoption were able to eradicate  diseases such as EIA and prevent major export market losses, benefits  would quickly exceed adoption costs.   xiii  …
