Carbon footprint provides new perspective of analysis of human activities effecting climate change. Therefore, this paper taking typical karst area-Bijie as an example, estimated the agricultural carbon emissions, carbon sink and carbon footprint. The results of the study showed that:(1) agricultural carbon emissions and carbon emissions intensity of eight counties had apparent differences in Bijie, QianXi was the most agricultural carbon footprint county, 86 165.37 t, the least was Zhijin County with 37 169.33 t of emission, the difference between those two counties was 48 996.04 t, the carbon emission of QianXi County was 1.32 times of that of Zhijin County. Qianxi and Nayong County had the biggest carbon emission intensity, the least was Zhijin, the sequence was Qianxi>Nayong>Jinsha>Dafang>Bijie >Hezhang>Weining>Zhijin;(2) agricultural carbon sink and carbon sink intensity of eight counties in Bijie had obvious difference, and agricultural carbon sink and carbon sink intensity of Weining and Nayong county had contrary trend;(3) carbon footprint had obvious differentiation, agricultural carbon footprint is at the surplus state, but the differences of carbon footprint of unit area and unit agricultural GDP were significant, the sequence of per unit area of carbon footprint was Weiningn>Nayong>Jinsha>Zhijin>Hezhang>Dafang>Bijie>Qianxi>Zhijin. Unit GDP of agriculture carbon footprint was Weining>Hezhang>Dafang>Jinsha>Qianxi>Bijie>Nayong>Zhijin. Weining had the largest per unit area of carbon footprint and unit agricultural GDP, while Zhijin was just opposite.
