Bangladesh vs Turkey: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Agriculture
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Agriculture over time
- Bangladesh
- Turkey
How they compare
Turkey currently reports 19.4 Mt CO2e against 17.85 Mt CO2e in Bangladesh, a difference of 1.55 Mt CO2e.
That makes Turkey's figure about 1.1 times Bangladesh's.
The two have swapped places 4 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Turkey ahead.
Bangladesh ranks 21st and Turkey ranks 18th of 201 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Bangladesh averaged higher in 1 and Turkey in 5.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Bangladesh | Turkey | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 6.17 Mt CO2e | 11.77 Mt CO2e | 5.59 Mt CO2e | Turkey |
| 1980s | 7.72 Mt CO2e | 14.94 Mt CO2e | 7.22 Mt CO2e | Turkey |
| 1990s | 11.71 Mt CO2e | 15.02 Mt CO2e | 3.31 Mt CO2e | Turkey |
| 2000s | 15.33 Mt CO2e | 14.62 Mt CO2e | 0.702 Mt CO2e | Bangladesh |
| 2010s | 17.47 Mt CO2e | 17.74 Mt CO2e | 0.2717 Mt CO2e | Turkey |
| 2020s | 18.73 Mt CO2e | 20.79 Mt CO2e | 2.05 Mt CO2e | Turkey |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

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).
