Abstract

Meat consumption and production in Asia have boomed over the last decade to meet growing regional and global demand. Asia now supplies around 40% of the global broiler or meat chicken industry. Dominant policy frameworks such as ‘One Health’ aim to manage the health risks associated with factory livestock farming, which has rightly become a major concern because of regular disease outbreaks. Yet this approach provides a limited basis for addressing broader risks and challenges associated with what we term the Asian ‘broiler complex’. This includes the intertwined networks of feed production, factory farming and meat distribution nodes through which health and environmental risks can accumulate and be amplified. By applying this broader lens, we highlight the need to better understand the industry's pressing environmental, animal welfare, social and health challenges to inform more integrated policy approaches.

亚洲家禽业的政策和研究议程

亚洲的肉类消费和生产在过去十年中蓬勃发展，以满足日益增长的地区和全球需求。亚洲目前供应全球肉鸡或肉鸡行业约40%的产品。“一个健康”等主导政策框架旨在管理与工厂化畜牧业相关的健康风险，由于疾病的定期爆发，工厂化畜牧已理所当然地成为一个主要问题。然而，这种方法为解决与我们所称的亚洲“肉鸡复合体”相关的更广泛的风险和挑战提供了有限的基础。这包括饲料生产、工厂化养殖和肉类分销节点的交织网络，通过这些节点，健康和环境风险可以积累并放大。通过应用这一更广泛的视角，我们强调需要更好地了解该行业面临的紧迫环境、动物福利、社会和健康挑战，为更综合的政策方法提供信息。

期刊介绍： Asia & the Pacific Policy Studies is the flagship journal of the Crawford School of Public Policy at The Australian National University. It is a peer-reviewed journal that targets research in policy studies in Australia, Asia and the Pacific, across a discipline focus that includes economics, political science, governance, development and the environment. Specific themes of recent interest include health and education, aid, migration, inequality, poverty reduction, energy, climate and the environment, food policy, public administration, the role of the private sector in public policy, trade, foreign policy, natural resource management and development policy. Papers on a range of topics that speak to various disciplines, the region and policy makers are encouraged. The goal of the journal is to break down barriers across disciplines, and generate policy impact. Submissions will be reviewed on the basis of content, policy relevance and readability.
