Enteric Fermentation
In Bulgaria, the sub-sector Enteric Fermentation (part of Agriculture) was responsible for 1.71 Mt CO₂eq of emissions in the year 2021, which is 3.2% of total emissions in that year. Compared to 1990 (5.38 Mt CO₂eq), emissions have decreased by 68.2%. Under existing measures, emissions are projected to reach 2.01 Mt CO₂eq by 2050.
What is part of this sector? Emissions produced during digestive processes (burping & flatulence) of farm animals such as cows, pigs, goats, poultry, sheep, horses and deer.
This sub-sector accounts for 25.9% of Agriculture emissions in Bulgaria.
