Due to fear about mad cow disease, Japan stopped importing animal feed from Britain in 1996, beef imports and processed beef products from 18 countries including EU members starting in 2001, and similar imports from Canada and the United States in 2003. After U.S. beef imports were banned, McDonald’s Japan and other Japanese importers replaced much of the banned U.S. beef with Australian beef, causing an export boom for Australia (“China Bans U.S. Beef,” cnn.com, December 24, 2003; “Beef Producers Are on the Lookout for Extra Demand,” abc.net.au, June 13, 2005). Use supply and demand curves to show the impact of these events on the domestic Australian beef market.
