Introduction
Zoonos, which transmit to both animal and human, has a big effect on society frorm economic and public health point of view. WHO designated especially 13 kinds of Zoonosis as "Neglected Noonotic disease (NZD)" and strengthened the control measures.Effect of NZD has especially huge on poor people in rural area in developing countries.In background of NZD spread, there are farmers' behavior buried in social context such as; 1) Bounded rationality which limited knowledge prevent farmers' rational behavior, 2) Hidden behavior which farmers sell their disease infectied animals illicitly. In my research, We consider NZD spread as externality in economics and we search the contermeasures for control from interdisciolinary viewpoint, foucsing on Myanmar, Sri Lanka and Madagscar.
