Florida's Citrus Canker Eradication Program (CCEP): Annual Economic Impact on Florida's Fresh and Processed Grapefruit Industry
Abstract
In the analysis presented in this paper, the benefits of the CCEP are predicted through an analysis of the Florida citrus industry under the scenario that citrus canker has become endemic. The estimated net change in revenue in the fresh and processed markets and the additional costs of production were the measurements of the predicted benefits.
