3.3. Environmental assessment
Data processing highlighted that during the vSRC cultivation an
amount of 8090 kg CO2 eq ha1 was emitted, 6420 kg CO2 eq ha1
for the SRC and 26,370 kg CO2 eq ha1 for the maize. These values
correspond to 96.28 kg CO2 eq Mg DM1 for vSRC,
76.94 kg CO2 eq Mg DM1 for vSRC and 228.33 kg CO2 eq Mg DM1
for maize. Comparing the CO2 emissions among the operations in
the different crops, it can be observed that higher values were always
obtained from fertilization and harvesting operations,
regardless of the crop type. Lower values were obtained in the
