Dear Manu Sharma and team
please find attached a report on carbonfootprint evaluation of a dairy sector
we find the contribution of farm sector is significant while that of processing and transport in trivial when one calculates carbonfootprint per litre of milk.we have considered a co operative dairy near nashik for analysis.we surveyed the farmers and employed indirect method suggested by IPCC to arrive at the GHG emissions from livestock .The detailed calculations,methodology as well as our analysis and suggestions are attached in the enclosed report .
This work was completed as part of undergraduate students from KKWagh-Chirag,Ankush and Rohan.Dr Anand Rao of CTARA,IIT Bombay was involved in framing of questionaire as well as pointing out the methodology.
Though we plan to publish some results i thought it could be more useful to share it in raw form with the team
hence i am enclosing the report for anybody interested
Comments of Manu Sharma ,our moderator and climate policy activist and expert is specially invited
regards
