Analysis
In 2015, ghg emissions from food systems, by gas (mt co2 eq) - f-gases in Somalia stood at 1.54. That is the highest value across all 26 years on record.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 24.8% over ten years.
Over the whole period, ghg emissions from food systems, by gas (mt co2 eq) - f-gases in Somalia peaked at 1.54 in 2013 and was at its lowest, 0.0001, in 1990.
That places Somalia 92nd out of 93 countries with data for 2015, putting it in the bottom quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

About this data
GHG emissions from food systems disaggregated by gas are generated from EDGAR-FOOD, a global emission inventory of GHGs from the food systems. EDGAR-FOOD has been developed to aid the understanding of the activities underlying the energy demand and use, agriculture and land use change emissions associated with the production, distribution, consumption and disposal of food through the various stages and sectors of the composite global food system. These data were complemented with data from the FAOSTAT database on GHG emissions from land use related to agriculture (FAO, 2020). EDGAR-FOOD represents the first database consistently covering each stage of the food chain for all countries with yearly frequency for the period 1990-2015. Details regarding the methodology applied are available in Crippa et al. (2021).
