Government Accountability Office, 2005 OCLC Number: (OCoLC)58802258 Subject: Agriculture -- Security measures -- United States -- Evaluation. Excerpt: . . . Experts believe that the deliberate introduction of animal and plant Background diseases at the farm level would cause severe economic disruption given that agriculture accounts for 13 percent of the U. S. gross domestic product Concentrated Livestock Production and 18 percent of domestic employment. In the event of agroterrorism, losses to farmers could result from decreases in the price of livestock, poultry, and crops; reductions in sales due to a decline or halt in productivity; inability to move animals to the market; and costs associated with disease control, including disposal of contaminated animals or plants. Losses could be particularly severe in states where animal and crop production is concentrated. For example, three states produce 53 percent of the total U. S. hog production and three states produce 39 percent of the 8 total U. S. soybean production. ( See figs. 1 and 2. ) Substantial losses could also arise from halting exports; the value of U. S. agricultural exports in Source: Egames, Inc. fiscal year 2003 exceeded 56 billion. Livestock production generated 106 billion in farm revenue, or more than one-half of all farm revenue in 2001. Intensive livestock production in which large numbers of poultry, swine, and dairy and beef cattle are held in confinement facilities accounted for about 80 billion of this revenue. As a result, a few areas contain a very large population of animals that are at risk. Figure 1: Top Hog-Producing States in 2002 Total percentage of Hog: the U.
