How this figure is calculated

Rice Cultivation — Emissions (CH4) divided by GDP (current US$), matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.

Rice Cultivation — Emissions (CH4) ÷ GDP (current US$)

Computed from

  • Rice Cultivation — Emissions Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
  • GDP Country official statistics, National Statistical Organizations and/or Central Banks

Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
