Analysis
Ukraine recorded 8.72 Mt CO2e for methane (ch4) emissions from agriculture in 2024. That is the lowest value across all 55 years on record.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 5.7% on the previous year and down 44.7% over ten years.
Over the whole period, methane (ch4) emissions from agriculture in Ukraine peaked at 72.25 Mt CO2e in 1989 and was at its lowest, 8.72 Mt CO2e, in 2024.
Ukraine ranks 64th of 201 countries on this measure, 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 methane (CH4), 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.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).
