The management of agricultural soil is the largest source of nitrous oxide (N₂O) emissions in the United States, by far. In 2022, agricultural soil management accounted for three quarters of total U.S. N₂O emissions. The joint second-largest contributors to U.S. N₂O emissions were stationary combustion installations and wastewater treatment facilities.
