- Africa
- Germany
How they compare
Africa currently reports 25.19 kt against 6.02 kt in Germany, a difference of 19.17 kt.
That makes Africa's figure about 4.2 times Germany's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 65 shared years of data; in 1961 it was Germany ahead.
Africa ranks 15th and Germany ranks 15th of 33 groups.
Across the 9 decades both report, Africa averaged higher in 6 and Germany in 3.

About this data
The FAOSTAT domain on Emissions from Crops provides estimates of emissions associated with crop processes, namely 1) crop residues, 2) burning of crop residues, and 3) rice cultivation and the application of nitrogen (N) fertilizers, including mineral and chemical fertilizers, to soils. Estimates are computed at Tier 1 following the 2006 IPCC Guidelines for National greenhouse gas (GHG) Inventories (IPCC, 2006).
