Analysis
The most recent figure for burning - crop residues — emissions (co2eq) (ar5) — unfccc in Canada is 56.72 kt, measured in 2020.
The figure is up 8.9% on the previous year and up 55.8% over ten years.
Over the whole period, burning - crop residues — emissions (co2eq) (ar5) — unfccc in Canada peaked at 237.31 kt in 1990 and was at its lowest, 34.28 kt, in 2011.
That places Canada 12th out of 42 countries with data for 2020, putting it in the middle of the range.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

About this data
The FAOSTAT domain on Emissions Totals summarizes the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions disseminated in the FAOSTAT Climate Change domains of emissions from agrifood 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). Emissions from other economic sectors as defined by the IPCC are also disseminated in the domain for completeness.
