Reducing the amount of CO2, CH4 and N2O produced in agriculture will be crucial for climate change mitigation efforts (see also Wollenberg et al., Global Change Biology 22, 3859 \u2013 3864). To identify production areas and practices of particular potential for reduction, Carlson and colleagues set up a global inventory of food production intensity (how much greenhouse gas is produced per kilokalorie food). They reached such an inventory by combining high-resolution satellite data with models describing greenhouse gas and food production by various agricultural practices. Their analysis was focused exclusively on crop production, excluding for example emissions from livestock production, from deforestation or from fertilizer production.<\/p>\n<h3>Worst practices<\/h3>\n<p lang=\"\">Flooded rice paddies, drained\/cultivated peatlands and N-fertilizer applications were identified as the three practices most problematic, accounting for 48, 32 and 20% of all cropland greenhouse gas emissions. While rice paddies and N-fertilization are producing substantial amounts of food, this is not the case for drained\/cultivated peatlands. Such agricultural areas can be found primarily in Northern Europe and Indoesia and are producing only 1.1 % of global crop kilocalories. Cultivation of peatlands is therefore regarded as a prime target for elimination. In the case of rice, greenhouse gas production is directly connected to flooding and small changes in flooding regime may significantly reduce greenhouse gases.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"\">Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nature.com\/nclimate\/journal\/v7\/n1\/full\/nclimate3158.html\">Carlson et al., Nature Climate Change 7, 63 &#8211; 68<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=&#8220;Zeile&#8220;][et_pb_column type=&#8220;4_4&#8243;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8220;Links&#8220; background_layout=&#8220;light&#8220; text_orientation=&#8220;left&#8220; use_border_color=&#8220;off&#8220; border_color=&#8220;#ffffff&#8220; border_style=&#8220;solid&#8220; text_font_size=&#8220;18&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scivit.de\/lang\/news\/\">Scivit News &#8211; Visual Science<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scivit.de\/lang\/products\/illustrations-photography\/\">More illustrations from Scivit<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCittg4tLzmxR_xsgWlwXpxA\">More videos from Scivit<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto: tfester@scivit.de\">Have a video abstract based on this cartoon (300 Euro)<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=&#8220;Zeile&#8220; global_module=&#8220;619&#8243; make_fullwidth=&#8220;off&#8220; use_custom_width=&#8220;off&#8220; width_unit=&#8220;on&#8220; use_custom_gutter=&#8220;off&#8220; padding_mobile=&#8220;off&#8220; allow_player_pause=&#8220;off&#8220; parallax=&#8220;off&#8220; parallax_method=&#8220;off&#8220; make_equal=&#8220;off&#8220; parallax_1=&#8220;off&#8220; parallax_method_1=&#8220;off&#8220; column_padding_mobile=&#8220;on&#8220;][et_pb_column type=&#8220;4_4&#8243;][et_pb_post_nav global_parent=&#8220;619&#8243; admin_label=&#8220;Beitragsnavigierung&#8220; in_same_term=&#8220;off&#8220; hide_prev=&#8220;off&#8220; hide_next=&#8220;off&#8220; prev_text=&#8220;Previous News&#8220; next_text=&#8220;Further News&#8220; use_border_color=&#8220;off&#8220; border_color=&#8220;#ffffff&#8220; border_style=&#8220;solid&#8220; title_font_size=&#8220;18px&#8220;] [\/et_pb_post_nav][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[et_pb_section admin_label=&#8220;Sektion&#8220; fullwidth=&#8220;on&#8220; specialty=&#8220;off&#8220;][et_pb_fullwidth_image admin_label=&#8220;Volle Breite des Bildes&#8220; src=&#8220;https:\/\/www.scivit.de\/lang\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Header.png&#8220; alt=&#8220;Greenhouse gas saving potentials in agriculture&#8220; title_text=&#8220;Greenhouse gas saving potentials in agriculture&#8220; show_in_lightbox=&#8220;off&#8220; url_new_window=&#8220;off&#8220; use_overlay=&#8220;off&#8220; animation=&#8220;left&#8220; use_border_color=&#8220;on&#8220; border_color=&#8220;#0c71c3&#8243; border_style=&#8220;solid&#8220; border_width=&#8220;2px&#8220;] [\/et_pb_fullwidth_image][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section admin_label=&#8220;section&#8220;][et_pb_row admin_label=&#8220;Zeile&#8220;][et_pb_column type=&#8220;4_4&#8243;][et_pb_post_title admin_label=&#8220;Posttitel&#8220; title=&#8220;on&#8220; meta=&#8220;on&#8220; author=&#8220;on&#8220; date=&#8220;on&#8220; categories=&#8220;on&#8220; comments=&#8220;on&#8220; featured_image=&#8220;off&#8220; featured_placement=&#8220;below&#8220; parallax_effect=&#8220;on&#8220; parallax_method=&#8220;on&#8220; text_orientation=&#8220;left&#8220; text_color=&#8220;dark&#8220; text_background=&#8220;off&#8220; text_bg_color=&#8220;rgba(255,255,255,0.9)&#8220; module_bg_color=&#8220;rgba(255,255,255,0)&#8220; title_all_caps=&#8220;off&#8220; use_border_color=&#8220;off&#8220; border_color=&#8220;#ffffff&#8220; border_style=&#8220;solid&#8220;] [\/et_pb_post_title][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=&#8220;Zeile&#8220;][et_pb_column [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1295,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[24,9,7,18],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1293","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-climate-change","category-ecology","category-news","category-soil-biology"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.8.1 -
