Livestock Activity Data Guidance (L-ADG): Methods and guidance on compilation of activity data for Tier 2 livestock GHG inventories by Wilkes, Andreas, Pica-Ciamarra, Ugo, Opio, Carolyn

“…The Livestock Activity Data Guidance (L-ADG) provides practical methods for countries to estimate the activity data used to compile livestock GHG inventories using the IPCC Tier 2 approach. The purpose is to support countries to improve the accuracy of the livestock emission estimates in national GHG inventories, and thus enable countries to measure and report progress towards their NDCs.…”

The relevance of livestock MRV in East and Southern Africa by Dijk, Suzanne van, Wassie, Shimels Eshete, Wilkes, Andreas

“…To access climate finance and enable climate change mitigation efforts in the livestock sector, knowledge of (practical) methods for monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) of greenhouse gas emissions is essential. Advanced IPCC Tier 2 methods are required to establish detailed livestock emission profiles, identify the emission reduction potential and help policymakers prioritize livestock interventions.…”

Influence of soil properties on N2O and CO2 emissions from excreta deposited on tropical pastures in Kenya by Yuhao Zhu, Merbold, Lutz, Leitner, Sonja, Longlong Xia, Pelster, David E., Diaz Pines, Eugenio, Abwanda, Sheila O., Mutuo, Paul M., Butterbach-Bahl, Klaus

“…Assuming an excreta-N ratio of dung to urine of 66:34, as evidenced in earlier studies for SSA, and averaging across all treatments and soils, we calculated a cattle excreta N2O EF of 0.14%, which is one magnitude lower than the IPCC default N2O EF of 2%. Our results call for a revision of the IPCC guidelines for calculating N2O emissions from excreta deposition on tropical rangelands.…”
