Greenhouse gas emissions per euro produced - Infopage

This indicator represents the ratio between the emissions from agriculture (methane (CH₄), nitrous oxide (N₂O) and carbon dioxide (CO₂)) and the value of the agricultural production, expressed in Kg CO₂ equivalent per Euro.

In the numerator the following sources of GHG from agriculture, expressed in tons CO₂ equivalent per year, are included:

• — enteric fermentation of ruminants (CH₄) – UNFCC Sector 3.A
• — manure management (CH₄, N₂O) – UNFCC Sector 3.B
• — rice cultivation (CH₄) – UNFCC Sector 3.C
• — agricultural soil management (mainly CH₄, N₂O) – UNFCC Sector 3.D
• — Grassland – UNFCC Sector 4.C
• — Cropland – UNFCC Sector 4.B

For the denominator the value of the agricultural production (crop output, animal output, agricultural services) at real prices is expressed in million euro (chain linked volumes 2015) has been used.
