Breakdown of farm-gate agriculture emissions in Brazil 2022, by segment

Published by Ian Tiseo, Dec 10, 2024

Enteric fermentation was by far the largest source of Brazil's agriculture emissions from within the farm gate in 2022, accounting for almost 70 percent of total emissions (excluding energy-related emissions). Enteric fermentation is a part of the digestive process in ruminant animals and produces large amounts of methane, a potent greenhouse gas. Some of the biggest methane-polluting meat and dairy companies are based in Brazil, such as JBS and Marfrig.
