  1. Scenarios for livestock AMUQ trajectories under different LBIO and AMUI assumptions. This table outlines scenarios for livestock antimicrobial usage quantity (AMUQ) trajectories based on assumptions for livestock biomass (LBIO) and antimicrobial use intensity (AMUI). LBIO is modeled at upper bound, lower bound, or business-as-usual (BAU) levels, while AMUI is considered under BAU and with reductions of 30% and 50%.
