Name
Northwest (Fuping) Wheat-Corn Production ; Wheat Cultivation
Use advice for data set Users should apply this data set considering the methodological scope of the life cycle assessment, which includes the extraction and transportation of minerals and energy, production and transportation of agricultural inputs, and cultivation of crops. The environmental impacts of related infrastructure, facilities, and the transportation of materials are excluded. Careful consideration should be given to the temporal and geographical relevance of the data (2013, Fuping and Yangling regions). Additional modeling might be required to adjust for changes over time and different agricultural practices.
Technical purpose of product or process This dataset focuses on the life cycle of winter wheat and summer maize rotation system in Northwest (Fuping) region, specifically used in analyses and decision-making related to agricultural cultivation practices, crop yield optimization, and environmental impact assessments commonly applied in agri-environmental research and policy planning.

  • ILCD: Unit processes / Materials production / Agricultural production means
General comment on data set The life cycle of winter wheats-summer maize rotation system mainly includes three stages: raw material mining and transportation, agricultural materials production and transportation, and crop planting, including coal, oil, natural gas, electricity and other raw materials mining and production, land resource utilization, fertilizer, pesticide and other agricultural materials production related energy consumption and pollutant emission. Including CO2, NH3, SO2, CH4, N2O and CO [11]. The environmental impact of plant equipment, construction facilities, production of transport tools and transportation of raw materials associated with the system is not considered.

Technology description including background system The research on the resource utilization and environmental emission of winter wheat-summer maize rotation system from raw material extraction, processing and transportation to agricultural materials production and crop planting process is to provide decision-making basis for the production and environmental management of the whole process of winter wheat-summer maize rotation system. The life cycle assessment of agricultural products starts from the mining of ore and energy and ends in the output of crop planting, including the output of agricultural products and pollutants. Land resources are the basis of all production activities and directly enter the agricultural system. In this study, 1 t of crops were evaluated as functional units
