Abstract
We demonstrate that the CU is an appropriate unit for the description of agricultural products and can serve as the basis for an agriculture-specific allocation approach in LCA. CU allocation may help to address agricultural allocation problems and might lead to more robust LCA results for products and services originating from raw agricultural materials. We recommend further testing and future application of this new allocation approach.
