- Sub-Saharan Africa
How they compare
Sub-Saharan Africa currently reports 0.0802 kt against 0.0314 kt in Kazakhstan, a difference of 0.0488 kt.
That makes Sub-Saharan Africa's figure about 2.6 times Kazakhstan's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 32 shared years of data; in 1992 it was Kazakhstan ahead.
Kazakhstan ranks 13th and Sub-Saharan Africa ranks 12th of 120 countries.
Sub-Saharan Africa has averaged higher in every one of the 4 decades both report.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Kazakhstan | Sub-Saharan Africa | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 0.0096 kt | 0.0119 kt | 0.0024 kt | Sub-Saharan Africa |
| 2000s | 0.0107 kt | 0.0363 kt | 0.0256 kt | Sub-Saharan Africa |

About this data
The FAOSTAT domain on Emissions from Pre- and post- agricultural production includes the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and related activity data, generated from pre- and post-agriculture production stages of the agri-food systems. Data are computed following the Tier 1 methods of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Guidelines for National greenhouse gas (GHG) Inventories (IPCC, 1996; 1997; 2000; 2002; 2006; 2014). The domain includes methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), carbon dioxide (CO2) and CO2 equivalent (CO2eq) emissions from the above activities as well as the aggregate fluorinated gases (F-gases) emissions. Estimates are available by country, with global coverage and are updated annually.The FAOSTAT domain disseminates information estimates of CH4, N2O, CO2 emissions, F-gases, their aggregates in CO2eq in units of kilotonnes (kt, or 10^6 kg), and the underlying activity data. CO2eq emissions are computed by using the IPCC Fifth Assessment report global warming potentials, AR5 (IPCC, 2014). Data are available for most countries and territories, for standard FAOSTAT regional aggregations, and for Annex I and non-Annex I country groups.
