Macroeconomic Scenario: Business-as-Usual
This dataset represents the production of 1 kg of maize grain (fresh matter).
The average annual yield is 5962 kg/ha at a moisture content of 14% after drying.
This activity represents the production of maize grain in cropping system (e.g. crop rotation with other grain in the agricultural cycle, mainly wheat). There is no maize monoculture in Brazil. Therefore, exchanges that are shared (land occupation and liming) are related to the time occupation of maize production.
The total amount of mineral fertilizers (N-P-K) and pesticides (imidacloprid, thiodicarb, atrazine, tembotrione, beta-cyfluthrin, and methyl ester) applied are 130 kg N.ha-1; 87.5 kg P2O5.ha-1; 87.5 kg K2O.ha-1 and 3.95 a.i.ha-1, respectively.
