Short‐run societal market impacts of removing metaphylaxis were also quantified. Table 2 presents societal
economic surplus estimates of a complete removal of metaphylaxis using both the NAHMS survey data and
proprietary feedlot data with the associated 0.92% and 1.17% losses in net returns to the cattle feeding industry.
Feedlots ultimately pass costs downstream to feeder cattle producers resulting in large loses in the feeder cattle
sector. Feedlots would lose from $925 million to $1,180 million and feeder cattle producers would lose $1,061
million to $1,354 million in producer surplus in a single year if metaphylaxis was eliminated. Higher beef retail
prices induce consumers to substitute into other meat products leading to relatively larger gains for pork and
smaller gains for poultry and lamb consumers and relatively larger gains for poultry and smaller gains for poultry
and pork producers.
Discussion:
Previous impact assessments on the removal of antimicrobials in U.S. livestock production have primarily
focused on removal of the larger relative proportion of antimicrobials in feed and water4 for hogs, broilers, and
cattle rather than antimicrobials used in metaphylaxis. Our producer and consumer surplus estimates are larger
in comparison to studies that estimated short‐run economic impacts of bans in feed and water antimicrobials.
These net returns and social surplus impacts are valuable to producers, animal health consultants, and policy
makers, which will allow them to make more informed decisions surrounding metaphylaxis use.
