| Use advice for data set | When utilizing this data set for Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of beef production, users must consider the specific treatment method used, as it affects the environmental impact of the process. The declining trend of the water flushing method should be noted due to regulatory changes. For accurate modeling, users should incorporate current regulatory constraints and cost considerations. Additionally, locally relevant data should be used where available to ensure regional specificity. |
| Technical purpose of product or process | The data set describes various manure treatment methods used in livestock and poultry breeding, specifically beef cattle retail. These methods are applied according to environmental regulations and economic considerations. The dry cleaning manure method represents a compromise between environmental impact and economic feasibility, whereas the bedding material treatment is more environmentally friendly but cost-restrictive. The water flushing manure treatment is declining due to strict environmental laws. |

| General comment on data set | Livestock and poultry manure treatment methods include dry cleaning manure, water flushing manure, bedding material treatment. The treatment method of water flushing manure is strictly restricted by the "Water Pollution Prevention and Control Action Plan" (referred to as "Water Ten") [88] and the new "Environmental Protection Law", which shows a downward trend year by year; The bedding method has less pollutant discharge and less harm to the environment, and can be directly applied to the field after simple composting, but it is highly restricted by economic cost, and is commonly used in poultry house manure treatment. The environmental harm of dry cleaning is between the two, and the economic cost is lower [89,90]. |

| Technology description including background system | In this paper, the life cycle of livestock and poultry farming is divided into six stages: feed crop planting, feed processing, livestock and poultry raising, manure treatment, slaughter and transportation. The specific life cycle process of livestock and poultry breeding is shown in Figure 2-1. Due to the lack of some data and the limitations of basic conditions, the production, transportation and use of pesticides, mulch and feed additives have not been analyzed, and the environmental impact caused by other related infrastructure construction, transport production and labor costs is no longer considered. |
