This dataset represents the production of 1 kg of eucalyptus wood fuel (fresh matter) from planted forest management as the prevailing management practices in a region that concentrates wood for energy purposes production in Brazil. Assumed wood basic density of 513 kg.m³-1. The actitivity lasts 14 years with 2 harvesting events. MAI is 36 m³/ha.year-1 in the first harvest and 30 m³/ha.year-1 in the second, resulting in a total of 462 m³.ha-1. Final moisture content of storage is 30%. The total amount of mineral fertilizers (N-P-K) and pesticides (glyphosate, sufluramide and flumioxazine) applied are 63 kg N.ha-1; 29 kg P2O5.ha-1; 234 kg K2O.ha-1 and 6.38 kg pesticides.ha-1, respectively. Species mainly cultivated are E. urophylla and E. urograndis, in a rate of 1333 seedlings.hectare-1. WFLD (2015) Methodological guidelines for the Life Cycle Inventory of agricultural products.

Technical purpose
Cultivation of wood to generate energy like charcoal inside steel industries. Big scale of plantations with high level of mechanization. Machines used in the harvesting step are: feller bunch to fell trees, skidder to extract the wood from the field to the forest boarder, grapple saw to process logs and loader grapple to load the transportation vehicle.
