Download Incorporation of the nitrification inhibitor DCD into New Zealand's 2009 National Inventory

This paper presents the development and implementation of a methodology to incorporate a nitrous oxide mitigation technology, the nitrification inhibitor DCD, into the agriculture section of New Zealand’s greenhouse gas national inventory. These emission factors and parameters were modified because extensive field-based research has demonstrated significant and consistent reductions in nitrous oxide emissions and nitrate leaching where DCD is applied.
