For an antipodean perspective, see also the New Zealand report: Potential Management Practices And Technologies To Reduce Nitrous Oxide, Methane And Carbon Dioxide Emissions From New Zealand Agriculture, prepared for Ministry of Agriculture & Forestry, September 2001.

The focus of this study was to 'identify current operational practices and technologies, and long-term opportunities, for reducing nitrous oxide, methane and carbon dioxide emissions and note any other environmental and economic effects of these practices/technologies.'

The review concludes that simple, single solutions for reducing greenhouse gas emissions do not exist and that in many cases the experimental evidence by which these options can be judged is limited.

A range of options is available and although each option has, in general, only a small impact, if implemented collectively they could help to defer the forecast rise in greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture.
