Irrigation, drip irrigation system {AU}|_Obsolete | AusLCI, U
Unit process Australia v00.00.000
This process is marked as obsolete. Please, choose another process. Included processes: Process begins with input of water, pumping and infrastructure. Process ends with irrigation of agriculture. Remark: Typical irrigatoin in Australia using drip irrigation system. Based on average water sources, average electricity and with 40m of pressure head. Users should check and adjust the pumping head to local data if its known. This inventory has been developed as part of the AusAgLCI initiative funded by a partnership of Australian Research and Development Corporations (RIRDC, CRDC, GRDC, SRDC, HAL, MLA, DA, FWPA) and Research Agencies (CSIRO, USQ and Q DAFF), with technical support from Life Cycle Strategies. More detail on inventory development can be found in the 'AusAgLCI Methodology for developing Life Cycle Inventory' documents located at www.auslci.alcas.asn.au. Geography: Refers to an average production in the Australia.
