67  Project emissions—livestock
 (1) The emissions for each livestock group must be calculated for the reporting period using the following formula:
  Equation LS7

      Where:

 =  emissions for livestock group gijk for the reporting period in carbon estimation area A; t CO2-e.
 =  number of animals in livestock group gijk that were within carbon estimation area A in the sequestration period of the reporting period; livestock head.
  =  period (in days) that livestock group gijk was within carbon estimation area A in the sequestration period of the reporting period; days.
 =  default emission factor for the livestock group, as set out in Tables 1–4 of the Standard Parameters and Emissions Factors; kg CO2-e / livestock head / day.
 =  conversion factor from kg to t CO2-e.
 (2) The total livestock emissions for the reporting period for each relevant carbon estimation area must be calculated using the following formula where the sum is over all livestock groups gijk that have been defined in accordance with subsection 50(2) in relation to the reporting period:
Note: Some livestock groups will not be characterised in terms of their livestock class (j) or their season (k).
  Equation LS8

      Where:

  =  total livestock emissions for the reporting period for carbon estimation area A; t CO2‑e.
 =  emissions for livestock group gijk for the reporting period in carbon estimation area A; t CO2-e.
 (3) The mean annual livestock emissions for the reporting period for each relevant carbon estimation area must be calculated using the following formula:
  Equation LS9

      Where:

  = mean annual livestock emissions in the reporting period for carbon estimation area A; t CO2-e / y.
  =  total livestock emissions for the reporting period for carbon estimation area A; t CO2‑e.
  =  length of the sequestration period of the reporting period for carbon estimation area A (years) (section 48).
