Abstract

<p> It has been reported that the introduction of GHG reduction measures in the agriculture and livestock sectors will play an important role in mitigating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Asia, but no evaluation of countermeasure technologies at the national level in all Asian regions has yet been conducted. Therefore, this study clarified the amount of methane and nitrous oxide that can be reduced by countermeasure technologies in the agriculture and livestock sectors of 36 Asian countries and the costs associated with the reduction and proposed specific cost-effective measures for reduction. As a result, it was found that GHG emissions can be reduced by about 1750 MtCO2eq (about 49% of the emissions in the same year) by implementing GHG reduction measures in 2050 in Asia as a whole.</p>
