- Botswana
- Suriname
How they compare
Suriname currently reports 0.3106 N2O against 0.284 N2O in Botswana, a difference of 0.0266 N2O.
That makes Suriname's figure about 1.1 times Botswana's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 30 shared years of data; in 1990 it was Botswana ahead.
Botswana ranks 61st and Suriname ranks 59th of 102 countries.
Across the 3 decades both report, Botswana averaged higher in 1 and Suriname in 2.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Botswana | Suriname | Difference | Ahead |

About this data
The FAOSTAT domain Emissions Totals summarizes the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions generated from agriculture and forest land. They consist of methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from crop and livestock activities, forest management and include land use and land use change processes. Data are computed at Tier 1 of the IPCC Guidelines for National greenhouse gas (GHG) Inventories (IPCC, 1996; 1997; 2000; 2002; 2006; 2014). Estimates are available by country, with global coverage for the period 1961β2019 with projections for 2030 and 2050 for some categories of emissions or 1990β2019 for others. The database is updated annually. The FAOSTAT domain Emissions Totals disseminates information estimates of CH4, N2O and CO2 emissions/removals and their aggregates in CO2eq in units of kilotonnes (kt, or 106 kg). The latter are computed by using the IPCC Fifth Assessment report global warming potentials, AR5 (IPCC, 2014).
