Analysis
In 2020, burning - crop residues — emissions (co2eq) from ch4 (ar5) — unfccc in Canada stood at 45.55 kt.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 8.9% on the previous year and up 55.8% over ten years.
Over the whole period, burning - crop residues — emissions (co2eq) from ch4 (ar5) — unfccc in Canada peaked at 190.55 kt in 1990 and was at its lowest, 27.52 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.
