Project Description

Agricultural Emission: Greenhouse gases, such as methane and nitrous oxide, released into the atmosphere as a result of agricultural practices, including livestock production, fertilizer application, and land use changes.

Connection to Climate Change: Agricultural emissions are a significant contributor to climate change. Methane emissions from livestock and nitrous oxide emissions from fertilizers are potent greenhouse gases. Land use changes, like deforestation for agriculture, also release stored carbon. Managing agricultural emissions and adopting sustainable farming practices are crucial for reducing the sector’s contribution to global warming.
