Use advice for data set
Users applying this data set for Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) purposes should carefully model the dairy farming system by considering the distinct stages of dairy cow production: breeding, lactation, and dry periods. The pollution emissions from the pick-up period are excluded in this study and should be taken into account if relevant. The functional unit for the study is 1 ton of FPCM (fat-protein corrected milk), which should be consistently applied when modeling the environmental impact. This data set should be used to assess the environmental impact of dairy production in Heilongjiang Province and may require regional adaptation when applied to different locations.
