Carbon-to-nitrogen ratios in agricultural residues.

Abstract:

:Agronomic crop residues produce greenhouse gas emissions. Crops that produce residues at harvest and during processing may vary from country to country. These residues, which can be in the form of peels, husks, stalks, or straw, are generally considered to be waste products. The carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) content of 19 different agronomic and grass crops common in Uganda were determined using standard laboratory methods. The C and N content of the samples were calculated from two separate equations containing a moisture correction factor. The crop residue C/N ratios were similar to UNEP/OECD/IEA/IPCC values.
