METHODOLOGY FOR EVALUATION OF GREENHOUSE GAS MITIGATION POTENTIALS BY USING AGRICULTURE BOTTOM-UP MODEL

Abstract

 To achieve the target cutting global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in half by 2050, mitigation technologies of agriculture and livestock sectors are expected to play an important role in reducing GHG emissions in the future. In this paper, we developed methodology for evaluating GHG mitigations in these sectors at a country/regional level by using AGriculture Bottom-up Model. We also developed methodologies to design GHG mitigation scenarios and how to plan mitigation technology applications. We applied the model to Malaysia and represented quantitatively mitigation potentials in the future.
