This report summarizes the state of Ethiopia’s livestock GHG profile and estimates emissions from dairy cattle, other cattle, sheep and goats for the main livestock emission sources. For each GHG emission source, the report gives a category description; describes methodological issues; uncertainties and time-series consistency; source-specific quality assessment, control and verification; source-specific recalculations and planned improvements.
