Ecuador vs North Korea: Emission Totals - Emissions (N2O) - Drained organic soils
Emission Totals - Emissions (N2O) - Drained organic soils over time
- Ecuador
- North Korea
How they compare
North Korea currently reports 0.0579 N2O against 0.0486 N2O in Ecuador, a difference of 0.0093 N2O.
That makes North Korea's figure about 1.2 times Ecuador's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 30 shared years of data; in 1990 it was North Korea ahead.
Ecuador ranks 84th and North Korea ranks 81st of 102 countries.
North Korea has averaged higher in every one of the 3 decades both report.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Ecuador | North Korea | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 0.0141 N2O | 0.0493 N2O | 0.0352 N2O | North Korea |
| 2000s | 0.0352 N2O | 0.0497 N2O | 0.0146 N2O | North Korea |
| 2010s | 0.0486 N2O | 0.0568 N2O | 0.0082 N2O | North Korea |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

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 1961–2019 with projections for 2030 and 2050 for some categories of emissions or 1990–2019 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).
