The objective of this research is to provide a comprehensive analysis of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions from the agriculture sector in Greece, focusing on the assessment of historical trends and future projections. The study will put under scrutiny the principal contributors to these emissions, including enteric fermentation, manure management, rice cultivation, and agricultural soils. Additionally, it will identify the key drivers behind these emissions, such as livestock population and fertilizer use. Using methods of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the paper will project future emission levels. Finally, it will propose evidence-based mitigation strategies and policy recommendations to help Greece transition towards a more sustainable and climate-resilient agriculture sector.
