Animal board invited review: Heritability of nitrogen use efficiency in fattening pigs: Current state and possible directions.

Animal : an international journal of animal bioscience - 1 Aug 2024

Kasper C

Abstract excerpt

Pork, an important component of human nutrition worldwide, contributes considerably to anthropogenic nitrogen and greenhouse gas emissions. Reducing the environmental impact of pig production is therefore essential. This can be achieved through system-level strategies, such as optimising resource use, improving manure management and recycling leftovers from human food production, and at the individual animal...
