Adaptation in AGB 3.3 to be a better proxy for mustard (the main proportion of the mustard seeds comes from canada, and rape seed and mustard is quiet similar in term of cultures): 
- mustard culture is not a GMO and most of the time the herbicide is not glufosinate, the replacement of "glufosinate" by "pesticide unspecified" has been done (as input of the technosphere and emission to soil)

This dataset represents the production of 1 kg of rapeseed, at standard water content required for storage (8%). The average Yield_ from 2009 - 2012 is 1.9 t/ha. Data are representative for rapeseed production in western Canada, that represents 80% of fields in Canada, used for the export market. Mineral NPK fertiliser input is 85-20-0 kg/ha. Organic fertilisers applied amount to 3.27 m3/ha of liquid manure and 2.33 t/ha of solid manure. Total active ingredients (a.i.) applied as pesticides amount to 1.03 kg a.i./ha.

The dataset was modelled within the project 'World Food LCA database (WFLDB)'. The aim of this project was to provide inventories of a broad variety of agricultural products and processes and to cover for each product at least 50% of the global export market. The export share of rapeseed produced in Canada amounts to 44% of the global export (tonnage exported in 2010). The production system regarded in this dataset aimed at representing rapeseed produced in Canada for the export market.

PEF-Quality: data quality rating (DQR) = 1.3 (i.e. excellent quality). This dataset refers to an average situation; for specific situations exchanges might differ substantially due to site specific parameters

Production volume: 13809125376 kg
Included activities start: This activity starts with soil cultivation after the harvest of the previous crop.
Included activities end: This activity ends with the harvest of grains and their transport to the farm gate. The dataset includes all machine operations, corresponding infrastructure, fuel use and sheds. Machine operations are: soil cultivation (a mixture of no tillage and minimum tillage), sowing, fertilisation, pesticide application, harvesting, grain drying, and on-farm transport. Further, direct field emissions and land use change are included. Heavy metal uptake by the crop is considered. The inputs of seeds, fertilisers and pesticides as well as packaging of fertilisers and pesticides are considered. The dataset doesn't include a) emissions from manure storage because these are within the system boundary of animal production and b) irrigation because rapeseed is normally not irrigated in western Canada.
