Nutrient nitrogen N (total) — Synthetic fertilizers (Direct emissions) in Mongolia, 1990–2014
Source: Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. Measured in kt.
Analysis
Mongolia recorded 0.29 kt for nutrient nitrogen n (total) — synthetic fertilizers (direct emissions) in 2014.
That represents a change of down 25.6% on the previous year and up 222.2% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nutrient nitrogen n (total) — synthetic fertilizers (direct emissions) in Mongolia peaked at 0.39 kt in 2013 and was at its lowest, 0.01 kt, in 1993.
That places Mongolia 38th out of 43 countries with data for 2014, putting it in the bottom quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

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).
