Colombia vs IDA only: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Agriculture
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Agriculture over time
- Colombia
- IDA only
How they compare
IDA only currently reports 230.63 Mt CO2e against 15.28 Mt CO2e in Colombia, a difference of 215.35 Mt CO2e.
That makes IDA only's figure about 15.1 times Colombia's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, IDA only has been ahead every year.
Colombia ranks 23rd and IDA only ranks 24th of 201 countries.
IDA only has averaged higher in every one of the 6 decades both report.

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).
