Analysis

The most recent figure for pre- and post-production — emissions in Ethiopia is 1,114 kt, measured in 2023.

Compared with earlier readings it is up 0.7% on the previous year and up 64.5% over ten years.

Over the whole period, pre- and post-production — emissions in Ethiopia peaked at 1,127 kt in 2019 and was at its lowest, 4.18 kt, in 1993.

That places Ethiopia 119th out of 247 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.

The FAOSTAT domain Emissions from Pre- and Post-Agricultural Production provides estimates of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and related activity data associated with pre- and post-production stages of agrifood systems. The domain includes methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), fluorinated gases (F-gases) and their aggregates expressed in carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2eq). Estimates are computed following Tier 1 methods of the IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories (IPCC, 1996; 1997; 2000; 2002; 2006; 2014) and are disseminated annually.
