Analysis
The most recent figure for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from agriculture in Ecuador is 0.3399 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 1.9% on the previous year and down 4.4% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from agriculture in Ecuador peaked at 0.5443 Mt CO2e in 2021 and was at its lowest, 0.0262 Mt CO2e, in 1975.
That places Ecuador 43rd out of 109 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the middle of the range.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the agricultural sector. This includes emissions from livestock (IPCC 2006 codes 3.A.1 (enteric fermentation, 3.a.2 (manure management) and crops (IPCC 2006 codes 3.C.1 Emissions from biomass burning, 3.C.2 Liming, 3.C.3 Urea application, 3.C.4 Direct N2O Emissions from managed soils, 3.C.5 Indirect N2O Emissions from managed soils, 3.C.6 Indirect N2O Emissions from manure management, 3.C.7 Rice cultivations). The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
