Use advice for data set
When utilizing this data set for lifecycle assessments, users should ensure they account for all inputs, including the production of chemical fertilizers and electricity. The terminal boundary of the assessment is the output of the agricultural products and pollutants from the crop planting process. Users should adhere to the principles of stratified random sampling and consider the local agricultural added value ratio when contextualizing this dataset within a larger research framework. The dataset is specific to the Ganzhou district and should be accordingly used in comparative studies or combined with other data for regional or national analysis.
