Globally, agriculture is directly responsible for about 11% of annual greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and induces an additional 17% through land use change, mostly in developing countries. Farms in the developing countries of sub-Saharan Africa and Asia are predominately managed by smallholders, with 80% of land holdings smaller than ten hectares. However, little to no information exists on greenhouse gas emissions and mitigation potentials in smallholder agriculture. Greenhouse gas measurements in agriculture are expensive, time consuming, and error prone, challenges only exacerbated by the heterogeneity of smallholder systems and landscapes. Concerns over methodological rigor, measurement costs, and the diversity of approaches, coupled with the demand for robust information suggest it is germane for the scientific community to establish standards of measurements for quantifying GHG emissions from smallholder agriculture. Standard guidelines for use by scientists, development organizations will help generate reliable data on emissions baselines and allow rigorous comparisons of mitigation options. The guidelines described in this book, developed by the CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture, and Food Security (CCAFS) and partners, are intended to inform anyone conducting field measurements of agricultural greenhouse gas sources and sinks, especially to develop IPCC Tier 2 emission factors or to compare mitigation options in smallholder systems.AgricultureClimate changeAir pollutionSoil scienceSoil conservationEnvironmental managementAgriculturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L11006Climate Changehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U12007Atmospheric Protection/Air Quality Control/Air Pollutionhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U35010Soil Science & Conservationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U28000Environmental Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U17009environmental managementair quality controlair pollutionclimate changeagricultureatmospheric protectionsoil scienceconservationAgriculture.Climate change.Air pollution.Soil science.Soil conservation.Environmental management.Agriculture.Climate Change.Atmospheric Protection/Air Quality Control/Air Pollution.Soil Science & Conservation.Environmental Management.630Rosenstock Todd Sedt1356561Rosenstock Todd Sedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtRufino Mariana Cedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtButterbach-Bahl Klausedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtWollenberg Liniedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtRichards Meryledthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910163542103321Methods for Measuring Greenhouse Gas Balances and Evaluating Mitigation Options in Smallholder Agriculture3361151UNINA
