The Economics of Terrestrial Invasive Species: A Review of the Literature

Lars Olson

Agricultural and Resource Economics Review, 2006, vol. 35, issue 01, 17

Abstract: This paper reviews the literature on the economics of invasive species management as it applies to invasive species in general and terrestrial invasive species in particular. The paper summarizes a number of recent studies that assign values to the economic impact of terrestrial invasive species on a national scale. This is followed by a review of the economic literature on control and prevention of a biological invasion and the literature on international trade and trade policy with invasive species. The paper then reviews selected studies on terrestrial invasive plants, animals, and microbes, respectively.
