47  Average annual baseline emissions for a project area
 (1) The annual average emissions for the baseline period for a project area (the ), in tonnes CO2-e per year, must be calculated and is worked out using the following equation:

  equation 12

  where:
is the average annual emissions from livestock during the baseline period BP  for the project area PA, in tonnes CO2-e per year, worked out using equation 13 or 15.
 is the average annual emissions from synthetic fertiliser applied to project area PA during the baseline period BP, in tonnes CO2-e per year, worked out using equation 17.
is the average annual emissions from lime applied in the baseline period BP  to project area PA, in tonnes CO2-e per year, worked out using equation 20.
is the average annual emissions from all residues and tillage events and landscape modification activities in the baseline period BP  in project area PA, in tonnes CO2-e per year, worked out using equation 22.
 is the average annual emissions from irrigation energy in the baseline period BP  in project area PA, in tonnes CO2-e per year, worked out using equation 29.
 (2) The project proponent may elect for one or all of the components of equation 12 to be zero for the baseline period (BP).
Note: A project proponent may need to make such an election if the component cannot be calculated from data available for the baseline period to ensure net abatement calculations are conservative.
