      abstract = {This paper examines the impact of food scares on marketing  margins in the US beef and pork industries. We analyze how  market stresses induced by different food recalls and  disease outbreaks affect price spreads and the extent of  price transmission at the slaughter-to-wholesale and  wholesale-to-retail levels. We use monthly data for the  period 1986–2008. The results indicate that marketing  margins are differentially affected by FSIS recalls and BSE  outbreaks at different levels of the beef and pork  marketing chain, although the effects are generally quite  modest. Only BSE discoveries in the United States  considerably affect marketing margins in the beef industry,  specifically at the wholesale-to-retail level. We also find  that food safety incidents have minor cross-industry and  cross-country effects on marketing margins.},
