Temporal Characteristics of Agricultural Carbon Emissions in Zhejiang Province:Total Amount,Intensity and Structure
This study utilizes publicly available data to construct a measurement index system for carbon emis-sions from four levels:agricultural energy utilization,agricultural material input,rice cultivation,and live-stock and poultry farming,Measure the agricultural carbon emissions of Zhejiang Province and its municipali-ties from 2010 to 2020,And conduct a temporal analysis on the intensity of carbon emissions and the internal structure of carbon emission sources,Research has found that the carbon emissions and emission intensity of agriculture across the province or municipality are showing a downward trend,From the internal structure of e-mission sources,most cities use livestock and poultry breeding as the main carbon emission source,and there are certain differences in the carbon emission structure among different cities.The policy implication of the study is that when formulating carbon emission reduction policies,it is necessary to fully consider the differ-ences in the agricultural industrial structure of different regions and cities,Rice cultivation,agricultural materi-al input,and agricultural energy utilization should become important areas for carbon reduction in Zhejiang's agriculture in the future.
