Use advice for data set Data users conducting Life Cycle Assessments should account for regional variation in energy sources, as the dataset is primarily based on factual research from specific regions in China. It is critical to consider the timeline of the data, as it represents a specific period (2014-2015) and may not reflect current practices. Users should also explore the possibility of these figures changing due to technological or management advancements in feed processing. Special attention should be given to the inclusion or exclusion of factors such as greenhouse gas emissions from electricity and coal consumption, which are relevant to the feed processing stage.
Technical purpose of product or process The dataset represents the feed processing stage for beef cattle scale operations as a part of the livestock and poultry breeding process. The data points to energy and resource consumption, specifically electricity and coal usage during feed processing for beef production. Industrial applications include agricultural operations focused on optimizing the feed cycle and improving the efficiency of feed formulas within the context of large-scale beef cattle farming.

Technological representativeness
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.
