Chinese Certified Emission Reduction (CCER) projects in agriculture and forestry

This study developed a dataset of CCER projects in agriculture and forestry through the following steps. First, we downloaded all available CCER projects information from the official website (http://cdm.ccchina.org.cn/) and screened for projects related to agriculture and forestry based on project type. In total, we identified 143 relevant projects and acquired their corresponding project design documents (PDDs). Second, we extracted key project-level indicators from the PDDs, including project names, developers, types, methodology, crediting periods, verification agencies, registration dates, committed annual emission reductions, provinces, and counties. Finally, given the multiple adjustments to county-level administrative divisions in China, we manually reviewed and updated all project location data to ensure consistency with current official administrative classifications.
