    Nitrogen absorbed (NA) versus N intake (NI) for HiCP-LoDRUP (■□), HiCP-HiDRUP (▴▵), LoCP-HiDRUP (●○) and LoCP-HiDRUP + Met (♦♢). Solid symbols represent the primiparous cows; open symbols are multipar

    Nitrogen absorbed (NA) versus N intake (NI) for HiCP-LoDRUP (■□), HiCP-HiDRUP (▴▵), LoCP-HiDRUP (●○) and LoCP-HiDRUP + Met (♦♢). Solid symbols represent the primiparous cows; open symbols are multiparous cows. The solid line represents the regression equation for primiparous cows (NA = 0.80(±0.005) * NI103(±17)). The dashed line represents the regression equation for multiparous cows (NA = 0.80(±0.005) * NI132(±11)).
