Due to the undeniably needed international comparability of livestock indicators, the methodology for calculating the number of livestock units (LSU) in Serbia was changed in 2012. Since then, the weight of the conventional large head (500kg) has not been used anymore as the reference unit for the translation of livestock of various species and ages into a single indicator. Instead, the application of coefficients used in the EU started. This paper compares the number of LSU calculated by means of different methodologies in order to see if the applied calculation method affects the livestock density and the structure of the total livestock population in Serbia. The obtained data show that the use of the old methodology results in about 1/3 smaller total livestock population. Differences are significant in poultry and pig production, where the application of the EU coefficients results in an increase of the number of LSU by 2.8 and 2.0 times, respectively, which reflects on the structure of the total livestock population in Serbia.
