=  fraction of residues of pasture removed from carbon estimation area A in the sequestration period of the reporting period; decimal.
  =  nitrogen content of pasture residues below ground as set out in Table 8 of the Standard Parameters and Emissions Factors; t N / t residue.
Note: Values of and  are specified in Table 7 of the Standard Parameters and Emissions Factors.
 (4) Emissions from fuel used for tillage events must be calculated using the following formula:
  Equation R9

      Where:

 = emissions from fuel use associated with tillage in the reporting period in carbon estimation area A; t CO2-e.
  = number of gas types.
  = area tilled in the sequestration period of the reporting period in carbon estimation area A; ha.
 = energy content factor for diesel fuel as set out in the NGER Measurement Determination; GJ / kL.
  = emission factor for each gas type g for diesel fuel as set out in the NGER Measurement Determination; kg CO2-e / GJ.
  = default diesel fuel use per hectare; kL / ha.
  = conversion factor from kg to t CO2-e.
Note 1: A default fuel use quantity of 0.012 kL of diesel fuel per hectare has been developed considering a range of different tillage types.
Note 2: Values for ECF and EFFg are set out in the NGER Measurement Determination.
 (5) Total emissions from all residues and tillage events for the reporting period for each relevant carbon estimation area must be calculated using the following formula:
  Equation R10

      Where:

 =  total emissions from all residues and tillage events in the reporting period in carbon estimation area A; t CO2-e.
 = emissions released from fuel use associated with tillage in the reporting period in carbon estimation area A; t CO2-e.
  = emissions released from pasture tillage events in the reporting period in carbon estimation area A; t CO2-e.
  =  emissions released from all crop residues in the reporting period in carbon estimation area A; t CO2-e.
