Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The food safety regulation implemented to address the contamination with radioactive caesium released by the accident of Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant was evaluated with respect to its costs and benefits. The costs of the regulation were estimated for the prohibition of the distribution and the processing of agricultural products, and for the countermeasures to reduce the caesium concentration in products. The effects of the regulation were measured by the reduction in the loss of life-expectancy due to the reduction of cancer risk through the reduction of radio-caesium intake. Assuming the benefit from the reduction in loss of life-expectancy by one year is 20 million yen, the efficient value for food standard became 390Bq/kg for rice, and 3600Bq/kg or gradually stringent values for dried Japanese persimmon.
