Reference product: palm fruit bunch [kg]
Location: ID - Indonesia
This dataset represents the production of 1 kg of palm fruit bunch. The average yield from 2009 - 2012 is 16.82 t/ha. The data are representative for palm bruit bunch production in Indonesia used for palm oil production for the export market. Mineral NPK fertiliser input is 81-14-345 kg/ha. Organic fertilisers applied amount to 2.51 m3/ha of liquid manure and 2.54 t/ha of solid manure. Total active ingredients (a.i.) applied as pesticides amount to 2.6 kg a.i./ha.
The dataset was modelled within the project 'World Food LCA database (WFLDB)'. The aim of this project was to provide inventories of a broad variety of agricultural products and processes and to cover for each product at least 50% of the global export market. The export share of palm oil produced in Indonesia amounts to 47% of the global export (tonnage exported in 2010). The production system regarded in this dataset aimed at representing palm fruit bunches produced in Indonesia for the export market.
PEF-Quality: data quality rating (DQR) = 2.2 (i.e. good quality). This dataset refers to an average situation; for specific situations exchanges might differ substantially due to site specific parameters
[This dataset has been generated using the system model "Allocation, cut-off by classification". A system model describes how activity datasets are linked to form product systems. The allocation cut-off system model subdivides multi-product activities by allocation, based on a physical properties, economic, mass or other properties. By-products of waste treatment processes are cut-off, as are all by-products classified as recyclable. Markets in this model include all activities in proportion to their current production volume.
Version 3 of the ecoinvent database offers three system models to choose from. For more information, please visit: https://www.ecoinvent.org/database/system-models-in-ecoinvent-3/system-…)]
