How this figure is calculated

Emission Totals - Direct emissions (N2O) - IPCC Agriculture divided by GDP (current US$), matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.

Emission Totals - Direct emissions (N2O) - IPCC Agriculture ÷ GDP (current US$)

Computed from

Emission Totals - Direct emissions (N2O) - IPCC Agriculture FAO, FAOSTAT Climate Change, Emissions Totals, http://www.fao.org/faostat/en/#data/GT
GDP Country official statistics, National Statistical Organizations and/or Central Banks

Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
