Analysis
In 2024, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from agriculture in Singapore stood at 0.0057 Mt CO2e.
That represents a change of down 6.6% on the previous year and down 27.8% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from agriculture in Singapore peaked at 0.0642 Mt CO2e in 1977 and was at its lowest, 0.0044 Mt CO2e, in 1992.
Singapore ranks 180th of 201 countries on this measure, in the bottom quarter.
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 nitrous oxide (N2O), 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).
