The emission of NMVOC from crops has been recalculated for 2009 because
of new data for agricultural land from DSt.

In recent years, there has been focus on reduction of the NH3 emission and
especially the possibilities for emission reduction in housings. A number of
investigations to estimate the effects from technical measures on the emission
have been initiated. However, very little housings have implemented
NH3 reduction technologies, although these probably will be an important
issue in future. When data is available, it is planned to implement the reduction
effect in the emission inventory.
It is planned to include the dust emission from arable farming – i.e. harvesting
and field preparation by machines. At the moment there are no resources
to implement this, but DK has noticed that ERT strongly encourage
making further efforts to include it.
The QA/QC plan for the agricultural sector is still under development. The
first step will focus on improvement of the procedure of internal quality
check of both data input and output. It is planned to provide a check list of
all activity data, emission factor, implied emission factor and other important
key parameters. The annual change for each emission source on activity
will be checked for significant differences and if necessary explained. Next
step includes control of the inventory data calculations. This mean to identify
the possibility to compare the calculations made by other institutions or
organisations e.g. calculation of total N-excretion made by the DCA-Danish
Centre for Food and Agriculture, Aarhus University. The third step is to
consider how to provide a quality assurance procedure for the entire inventory.
