Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.10. The product 'organo-mineral potassium fertiliser as K2O' is a substance with mixed organic and inorganic origin that is supplying the nutrient of Potassium to plants. More speciffically it is a co-formulation of a) one or more inorganic fertilisers mixed with b) one or more materials that contain organic carbon and nutrients of solely biological origin. It is mostly solid (else liquid) under normal conditions of temperature and pressure. The product represents an equivalent form of Potassium that is present in the fertiliser and is expressed as a mass of pure potassium oxide (K2O). Modelling this substance in a solution requires the user to add the solvent of their choice in their models. Based on EU regulations (REGULATION (EU) 2019/1009) if this substance would be used as fertiliser the N-P-K can vary depending on the fertiliser. The cut-off classification is allocatable product.
