Kazakhstan vs Sub-Saharan Africa: Food Processing β Emissions
Food Processing β Emissions over time
- Kazakhstan
- Sub-Saharan Africa
How they compare
Sub-Saharan Africa currently reports 3.57 kt against 0.3548 kt in Kazakhstan, a difference of 3.22 kt.
That makes Sub-Saharan Africa's figure about 10.1 times Kazakhstan's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 32 shared years of data; in 1992 it was Sub-Saharan Africa ahead.
Kazakhstan ranks 18th and Sub-Saharan Africa ranks 17th of 103 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 | 0.007 kt | 0.4294 kt | 0.4224 kt | Sub-Saharan Africa |
| 2000s | 0.1307 kt | 0.528 kt | 0.3973 kt | Sub-Saharan Africa |
| 2010s | 0.3856 kt | 0.9071 kt | 0.5215 kt | Sub-Saharan Africa |
| 2020s | 0.3078 kt | 2.28 kt | 1.97 kt | Sub-Saharan Africa |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

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.
