  1. For monitored fattening groups (MF) (SComSeMFPHS) and active sampling (SComSeAS), the component sensitivity is given for one MF and one visit, respectively, whereas costs are summed up over all MFand visits with active sampling in one year. (No extra value in EUR given due to marginal difference to CHF at the time of publication (07.05.2015: 1.037 CHF = 1 EUR); PAR = progressive atrophic rhinitis)
