collecting and destroying SRMs and cadavers through the high-risk circuit. These measures represent a cost of 560 million euros per year, or 67% of the total cost of control. Surveillance measures generate costs through the training of network members in clinical case detection, administrative processing of suspected cases, visits and, to a lesser extent, compensation for farmers. The total annual cost of surveillance measures amounts to 185 million euros, or 21.5% of the total cost of BSE control measures. Finally, the systematic slaughter of herds in which a case of BSE has been identified represents 12.5% of the total cost of control measures, i.e. 105 million euros. This brings the total annual cost of BSE control measures in France during the crisis period to 850 million euros.

This has led to major changes in the feeding practices of European livestock farmers. Stopping the use of animal fats had repercussions on the technological quality of concentrated feeds. Animal fats acted as binders for pellets, and their absence increased their friability, as well as altering other physical characteristics such as hardness and color. This in turn affected the palatability of the feed, and hence the feeding behavior of the animals. 1841:

In 2000, 75 % of French meal was used in poultry feed, and 17 % in pig feed. But this solution proved unsustainable, as the ban was extended to other species. Today, the preferred solution is incineration. Cement manufacturers would use the majority of this meal for energy production, while incineration plants and the thermal power stations of

These plants are rarely grown in Europe, which is largely dependent on producers in South America and the United States. This dependence increased in the second half of the 20th century with the development of livestock farming and world trade agreements, which enabled Europeans to support their grain financially in return for opening their borders to foreign oilseeds and protein crops. 466: 193:(noise, touch, dazzle), and isolate itself from the rest of the herd. Milk production and weight generally decrease, while appetite remains unchanged. Progression can last from a week to a year, with the different phases of the disease varying in duration from one animal to another. In the final stage of evolution, the animal has real locomotion problems. They frequently lose their balance, sometimes unable to stand up again. 1345:. Improved knowledge also made it possible to set a more precise age limit. In September 1996, France decided to remove the central nervous system only from cattle over 6 months of age, and then from cattle over 12 months of age from 2000 onwards, since this part of the body only becomes contaminated after a slow progression of the disease. At the same time, all age conditions were removed for the removal of the 22: 297: 1016:) following the announcement of the transmissibility of BSE to other species. Poultry meats benefited from the crisis, recording increases of 25% for chicken and up to 33% for guinea fowl. Most other European countries experienced similar declines, such as Germany, where beef consumption, already hit, fell by 32% between April 1995 and April 1996. At the same time, consumption was down 36% in Italy. 2054:

Its sole advantage was to reassure the consumer with its radical and impressive appearance, but it caused great harm to breeders, who sometimes took a very long time to build up their herd's genetics, and proved to be costly. It was subsequently called into question, notably in Switzerland where it was replaced by selective slaughter in 1999, then in France under pressure from the 1958: 1789: 1761:. This nutritional benefit alone is not enough to justify the use of meat and bone meal in feed. Alternative solutions exist, such as soy and rapeseed meals, which can be tanned to prevent their proteins from being degraded by rumen micro-organisms. Animal meal was also an inexpensive ingredient in feed, and made it possible to "recycle" certain livestock waste products. 1733: 1606: 766:-infected cattle had to be slaughtered and destroyed as a preventive measure. The British authorities banned the feeding of meat and bone meal to cattle. In 1989, France decided to ban imports of British meat and bone meal.

The United States is taking similar measures. For its part, France bans from donating blood anyone who lived in the UK for 6 months or more during the mad cow disease period (1980–1996).

From 1989, certain bovine tissues and organs considered dangerous to humans were banned from sale in the UK on the advice of the Southwood Committee.

In all, 65 nations halted their imports of American meat, denouncing the inadequacies of the American control system. As a result, US exports plummeted from 1,300,000 tonnes in 2003 to 322,000 tonnes in 2004, after a case of mad cow disease was identified. They have since recovered, reaching 771,000

A number of critics link the European Union's policy to the mad cow crisis, in particular its inertia. Throughout the crisis, it lagged behind the measures taken by the UK and then France.

From the first stirrings of the disease in the UK, it was in Germany that consumers reacted first, limiting their beef consumption by 11% in 1995.

The number of cases, initially low at the end of 1986, increased rapidly. By mid-1988, there were 50 cases a week, rising to 80 cases a week by October of the same year.
