Download Modelling Agriculture’s Contribution to New Zealand’s Contribution to the Post-2020 Agreement

The report provides emissions data obtained from a range of emissions scenarios (baselines and targeted mitigation actions to reduce absolute emissions and/or emissions intensities relative to baselines) through until the year 2050, with a specific focus on 2030. The analysis uses New Zealand’s national greenhouse gas emissions inventory and reporting tool as the primary vehicle to estimate emissions and the effectiveness of different mitigation options. This ensures that any actions taken could in fact be reflected in the national inventory and hence could be used to support any commitments by New Zealand.
