Abstract

In New Zealand, the Animal Products Act (1999) required all animal product processing businesses to have a Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) based Risk Management Program (RMP) by the end of 2002. The purpose of the Act is to manage food safety risks and to facilitate overseas market access. However the new regulation will potentially bring costs to businesses. This paper attempts to measure the effects of RMP requirements on the variable cost of production of the New Zealand seafood industry. Using the framework developed by Antle (2000), a cost function is estimated using census of production data from 1929 to 1998. Results show that variable costs could increase from 2 percent to 22 percent or from 2 cents to 19 cents per kilogram.
估计食品安全法规对新西兰海产品行业的成本
在新西兰,动物产品法案(1999)要求所有动物产品加工企业在2002年底之前有一个基于危害分析和关键控制点(HACCP)的风险管理计划(RMP)。该法案的目的是管理食品安全风险,促进海外市场准入。然而,新规定可能会给企业带来成本。本文试图衡量RMP要求对新西兰海产品生产可变成本的影响。使用Antle(2000)开发的框架,使用1929年至1998年的生产数据普查估计成本函数。结果表明,可变成本可能从2%增加到22%,或从每公斤2美分增加到19美分。
