The NUE at fattener level increased from 19 to 28%, due to the increased animal productivity. The NUE at the system level decreased from 46 to 11%, due to structure changes. 1 System NUE number population System NUE 8 population Year 21

In the BAU, the total N and P 7 losses were projected to increase by 25 and 55% between 21 and 23, respectively N and P losses can reduce by 64 and 95%, respectively.
