Unit process v00.00.000

This dataset represents the production of all canola seed in South Australia at market. Documentation for this dataset can be found in the 'LCAgMetrics Methodology for developing Life Cycle Inventory' report, available at https://agrifutures.com.au/. It was developed as part of the LCAgMetrics project, a partnership between Agrifutures Australia and Lifecycles, funded by the Australian Government's Sustainability Reporting Uplift Grant as part of the National Agriculture Traceability Grants Program. Production volume: 426533 ton/yr. This activity starts after harvest, activities included are: Transportation of straw assumed to be by truck with average of 200km due to its realively low value. HHV: 28.8 MJ/kg.
