      abstract = {Plant pests and animal diseases are a permanent threat to  crop and livestock producers and can have major economic  implications. The economic impact of transboundary plant  pests and animal diseases is the topic of this year's  special chapter, which assesses potential impacts as well  as the costs involved in control and prevention. It  explains why regulatory measures are justified as a means  of restricting transboundary pests and diseases and  comments on the primary measures used to combat them.  Important themes in this discussion are the need for  establishing cost-effective methods and levels of control  as well as strong international and regional cooperation.},
