  • 摘要:ABSTRACTThe agricultural sector is the second contributor to the worldwide emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs), as it is responsible for 13.5% of GHG emissions. The main aim of this research is to track GHG emission from the agricultural sector in the EU-27 between 1990 and 2016 in order to determine trends and changes of emission on a country scale. To achieve the study goal, data were collected from the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) website, followed by the application of the Simple Linear Regression Model (SLRM). The obtained results showed that most of the EU-27 countries witnessed a significant reduction of GHG emissions from the agricultural sector, except for Iceland and Spain. Interestingly, the highest reduction conducted by the United Kingdom was followed by Germany and France, where the reduction reached 385.27; 226.72 and 294.92 tons of CO2-equivalent per year, respectively. Thus, we can conclude that most EU countries significantly reduced GHG emissions to the atmosphere.
