GHG Tool Selector

Tool Source:
Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO)

This selection guide of 17 calculators is intended to help users select the most appropriate for a landscape-scale greenhouse gas (GHG) assessment of activities in agriculture and forestry.

It is based on a technical report published by FAO which includes appendices with all resource material and descriptions of the individual calculators. The data for this guide is based on the letter Colomb et al, Selection of appropriate calculators for landscape-scale greenhouse gas assessment for agriculture and forestry, Environmental Research Letters, 8, 015029, doi:10.1088/1748-9326/8/1/015029.

The classification is based on the main aim of the assessment: raising awareness, reporting, project evaluation or product assessment.

To display the table of suitable calculators at the bottom of the page, select the main aim, at least one geographical area, activity and source and the time and skills available.
