Emissions from crops (N2O)

The FAOSTAT domain Emissions from Crops provides estimates of emissions associated with crop processes, namely Crop residues, Burning of crop residues, and Rice cultivation and the application of nitrogen (N) fertilizers, including mineral and chemical fertilizers, to soils. Estimates are computed at Tier 1 following the 2006 IPCC Guidelines for National greenhouse gas (GHG) Inventories (IPCC, 2006).
