Farm data

Crop hectares

Needed to compute emission intensity per hectare. Diesel consumption

Factor: 2.68 kg CO₂/L (DEFRA 2023). Tractors, harvesters and machinery. Electricity consumption

kWh

Factor: 0.19 kg CO₂/kWh (Spanish grid mix). Pumping, cold storage, facilities. Synthetic nitrogen applied

kg N

Factor: 5.90 kg CO₂e/kg N (IPCC Tier 1). Includes manufacturing and soil N₂O emissions.

‹ Reference: typical emission intensity by farming system ›

Rainfed cereal

350 – 600 kg CO₂e/ha

No pumping, moderate N

Olive

200 – 450 kg CO₂e/ha

Low tillage intensity

Vineyard

250 – 500 kg CO₂e/ha

Minimum tillage + pruning

Horticulture

800 – 1,800 kg CO₂e/ha

High electricity use

Irrigated cereal

600 – 1,200 kg CO₂e/ha

Pumping + N for high yields

Indicative values for Spanish farms. Based on IPCC Tier 1 and DEFRA 2023. Excludes biomass carbon capture and soil management variability.
