Enteric fermentation
In Netherlands, the sub-sector Enteric fermentation (part of Agriculture) was responsible for 9.17 Mt CO₂eq of emissions in the year 2021, which is 5.5% of total emissions in that year. Compared to 1990 (10.39 Mt CO₂eq), emissions have decreased by 11.8%. Under existing measures, emissions are projected to reach 7.79 Mt CO₂eq by 2040.
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 32.1% of Agriculture emissions in Netherlands.
