Analysis
Nigeria recorded 22,614 kt for emissions from crops — emissions (co2eq) in 2050. That is the highest value across all 65 years on record.
Over the whole period, emissions from crops — emissions (co2eq) in Nigeria peaked at 22,614 kt in 2050 and was at its lowest, 1,209 kt, in 1966.
That places Nigeria 13th out of 199 countries with data for 2050, putting it in the top 10%.
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.
