Developing low-carbon agriculture and improving agricultural ability to cope with climate change is an important approach to promote sustainable development of agriculture.Based on the review of China’s agricultural carbon emissions，this paper summarizes and briefly reviews some major arguments and points out some shortcomings of current researches.Firstly, the research is mainly quantity-oriented and theoretical analysis and elaborated concepts are quite short；secondly,measurement system is not fully formed,and estimation results are quite different; thirdly,all current researches presented have some limitations in the research perspectives,and they are rarely considered from the economic perspective; finally,most countermeasures and suggestions are quite vague,which are short of relevance and feasibility of verification.Therefore,this paper proposes four future research perspectives.First,it is necessary to scientifically integrate the existing measurement system and compile Chinese agricultural carbon emissions database; secondly,economic theory and methods should be widely introduced and relationship between agricultural carbon emissions and agricultural development from different angles should be studied；thirdly,it is also necessary to strengthen the researches on farmers’ carbon behavior and pay attention to the design optimization of the micro-level system；finally,in order to construct the differentiated agricultural carbon reduction policy system,it’s also essential to combine theory with practice and make macrovisual study and microscopic study together.
