Analysis
The most recent figure for ipcc agriculture — emissions (co2eq) in Congo is 2,596 kt, measured in 2023.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 17.0% on the previous year and down 16.0% over ten years.
Over the whole period, ipcc agriculture — emissions (co2eq) in Congo peaked at 3,128 kt in 2022 and was at its lowest, 71.12 kt, in 1961.
That places Congo 133rd out of 243 countries with data for 2023, 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.
