日本語
本論文は、1970年から2024年までのインドの農業由来温室効果ガス排出量の推移と、2009年から2024年までの自主的炭素市場における農業カーボンクレジットの発行状況を分析する。農業排出量は増加したが、総排出量に占める割合は低下した。クレジット発行は排出量に比べて極めて少なく、排出クレジットギャップが大きいことを示す。政策支援と透明な市場メカニズムの重要性を指摘する。
English
This study analyzes India's agricultural greenhouse gas emissions from 1970 to 2024 and voluntary carbon credit issuance from 2009 to 2024. Agricultural emissions increased but its share declined. Only 0.20% of credits were issued relative to emissions, highlighting a large emission-credit gap. Key factors for agricultural carbon markets are identified, emphasizing policy support and transparent mechanisms.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本では農業由来の排出削減とJ-クレジット制度の活用が進んでおり、本論文のインドの事例は、農業カーボンクレジットの課題（価格、計測、追加性など）を日本と比較する上で有益である。特に、制度設計と農家参加の障壁は日本でも共通する課題である。
In the global GX context
This paper provides empirical evidence on the gap between agricultural emissions and voluntary carbon credits in India, a major developing economy. It offers insights for global carbon market mechanisms, especially regarding measurement, verification, and farmer participation, relevant to countries implementing Article 6 of the Paris Agreement.

📄 Abstract（原文）
Agriculture is an important source of greenhouse gas emissions in India and also offers mitigation opportunities through sustainable land use and carbon market mechanisms. This study examines Indian agriculture’s position in greenhouse gas emissions and the voluntary carbon market using secondary data from national and global databases. It analyses emission trends from 1970 to 2024 and voluntary carbon credit issuance up to 2025, with specific attention to 2009–2024, when agricultural carbon credits from India became available in the voluntary market. The results show that India’s total greenhouse gas emissions increased from 733.24 Mt CO₂e in 1970 to 4371.17 Mt CO₂e in 2024, while agricultural emissions increased from 402.79 Mt CO₂e to 805.43 Mt CO₂e. However, agriculture’s share in India’s total greenhouse gas emissions declined from 54.93% to 18.43%, mainly because emissions from other sectors grew faster. During 2009–2024, agriculture contributed 21.68% of India’s cumulative greenhouse gas emissions but accounted for only 0.20% of carbon credits issued in the voluntary carbon market. This indicates a substantial emission-credit gap. The study identifies carbon credit pricing, demand from compliance and voluntary markets, measurement and verification costs, additionality, farmer participation and institutional design as key factors shaping agricultural carbon markets in India. Policy support, transparent market mechanisms, credible monitoring systems and inclusive farmer-level institutions are required to strengthen the role of agriculture in climate change mitigation and sustainable transition.
