Objective By studying the characteristics and influencing factors of agricultural carbon emissions in Suining, it can truly provide a scientific reference for the realization of low-carbon agriculture. Methods In this study, Suining, Sichuan Province, was selected as the research object. Based on the carbon emission model of the emission coefficient method, the agricultural carbon emissions of the six types of carbon sources of agricultural production in Suining from 2010 to 2021 were calculated, and the Lograithmic Miviean Divisia Index (LMDI) was used to decompose the influencing factors of agricultural carbon emissions in Suining. Results The agricultural carbon emissions in Suining showed a slow downward trend, among which chemical fertilizer and plowing were the main contributors. The level of agricultural economic development is the main driving factor for the increase of agricultural carbon emissions in Suining, and agricultural production efficiency is the key factor restricting the increase of carbon emissions. Conclusions Suining should promote the development of low-carbon agriculture from the aspects of improving the utilization efficiency of agricultural materials, introducing scientific agricultural technology and changing the mode of agricultural economic development.
