Enteric fermentation Concentrated animal feeding operation

definition

Defined by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), is an intensive animal feeding operation (AFO) in which over 1000 animal units are confined for over 45 days a year. Emissions caused by the digestive system of domestic animals.

source

methodology

FAOSTAT data compiled by Climate TRACE. The FAOSTAT computes their emissions estimates with Tier 1 default factors of the IPCC Guidelines from National greenhouse gas (GHG) Inventories (IPCC, 1996; 1997; 2000; 2002; 2006). FAO collects national activity data from primary sources i.e., consensus, surveys and administrative records.

Rice Cultivation

definition

Methane emissions caused by growing, cultivating and harvesting rice paddies.

source

methodology

Methane (CH4) emissions estimated by identifying rice growing areas using satellite-based mapping. Once identified, total emissions from seasonal rice cultivation are computed at the country-level using Tier 1 default factors of the IPCC Guidelines from National Green House gas (GHG) Inventories (IPCC, 1996; 1997; 2000; 2002; 2006).

Managed soils

definition

Direct and indirect N2O emissions from soild management practices including: synthetic fertilizer, crop residues, and cultivation of organic soils.

source

methodology

Synthetic fertilizer N2O emissions were estimated with a semi-empirical model that uses country-level crop production and yields, and crop specific nitrogen use efficiencies, to determine synthetic fertilizer applied. Conversion to N2O emissions used The IPCC Tier 1 method. Crop Residues and Cultivation of Organic Soils, FAOSTAT results were incorporated.

Cropland fires

definition

Greenhouse gases emissions produced by the combustion of agriculture residues burned on site.

source

methodology

Estimation of crop fire emissions with an empirical relationship using inputs from satellite-derived datasets with vegetation combustion and CO2 emissions factors. Crop-fires were identified within a country, emissions estimated, and aggregated to the country-level for total carbon emissions.
