Emission Reporting for Agriculture: Frameworks and Metrics Matter
Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Frameworks and metrics that reliably describe agricultural emission sources and carbon sinks are critical to the formulation of cost‐effective mitigation investment. This study identifies and compares three distinct emission reporting frameworks across metrics of total emissions and emissions intensity.
