 In recent years, an increasing trend can be observed, resulting in a mean value (between 2020 to 2023) of 9.9 kt NH<sub>3</sub>/a or 2 % of total national ammonia emissions reported for 2023. Especially since the Corona year 2020, more people have acquired pets such as dogs. In recent years, an increasing trend can be observed, resulting in a mean value (between 2020 to 2023) of 9.9 kt NH<sub>3</sub>/a or 2 % of total national ammonia emissions reported for 2023.
