Compared to 1990 (1.98 Mt CO₂eq), emissions have decreased by 62.4%. Under existing measures, emissions are projected to reach 0.47 Mt CO₂eq by 2050.

What is part of this sector? Emissions caused by the fertilisation of soil (e.g. nitrogen fertiliser, liquid manure, sewage sludge) or by urine and manure from grazing animals.
