Use advice for data set
Data users should take into account the specific regional variations in open-field vegetable production practices when utilizing this LCA data. Careful consideration should be given to the greenhouse gas emissions associated with production and transportation of agricultural inputs (fertilizers and pesticides) and the operations during the farming phase (plowing, irrigation, etc.). Users should include carbon sequestration effects of vegetables and soil organic carbon fixation in their environmental impact models and must adjust the methodology according to the limitations regarding data from certain regions, such as the absence of data from Taiwan, China for the year 2016.

General comment
The boundary of the system is concentrated in the whole process of open field vegetable production (from sowing to harvesting), which is divided into agricultural phase and agricultural phase. The agricultural phase focuses on greenhouse gas emissions from the production and transportation of fertilizers (fertilizers and organic fertilizers), pesticides and agricultural film. The agricultural stage mainly focuses on the greenhouse gas emissions generated by the application process of fertilizer and pesticide, the diesel consumption and artificial energy consumption in the process of agricultural operation (tillage, irrigation, etc.), and the fixation of soil organic carbon caused by the net primary productivity of vegetables and the input of organic fertilizer [16].

Technical purpose
This data set is integral for understanding and optimizing the environmental impact of radish production within the broader category of open-field vegetable productions, which also includes tomatoes, cucumbers, and Chinese cabbage. The information is applicable for agricultural planners, environmental analysts, and policy makers to assess carbon footprints and explore emission reduction strategies in the agricultural sector, specifically targeting fertilizer and diesel usage, pesticide application, and overall production efficiency.
