Briefing Note: Greenhouse Gas Emissions by Irish Agriculture: Consequences arising from the Food Harvest Targets
Over the next ten years an expansion in the value of Irish agriculture is projected to take place. However, the magnitude of the projected expansion is likely to be insufficient to ensure that the targets set in the Food Harvest report are achieved without the implementation of the actions recommended by the Food Harvest Committee in its Food Harvest 2020 Report.

Irish Agriculture, Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Climate Change: opportunities, obstacles and proposed solutions
Agriculture contributes to global balances of greenhouse gases (GHGs) through emissions of nitrous oxide and methane and through emissions and/or sequestration of carbon dioxide. In Ireland, GHG emissions from agriculture represent 29.1% of total national GHG emissions. The emission reduction target of 30% by 2020, specified in the Climate Change Response Bill, applies to national emissions. In a hypothetical scenario of proportional burden sharing across sectors, where this overall target translates into a 30% reduction target for the agricultural sector, this will have significant implications for the sustainable development of this important indigenous industry. This submission highlights key international and national issues that must be considered in preparing any GHG control instruments with a specific focus on agriculture.
