No other EU country had a density above 1.7 LSU/ha. Malta and Belgium also reported high livestock densities (3.3 and 2.7 LSU/ha respectively). The Netherlands remained the EU country with the highest livestock density (3.4 LSU/ha) in 2020. Three countries had much higher livestock densities than any others (see Figure 1).
