Technology description
Production of dry cowpea (cow peas) grain up to the farm gate, including upstream production of agricultural inputs and on-farm operations through harvesting; grain is delivered unprocessed as harvested product in a production mix at farm gate.; Upstream production and supply of typical agricultural inputs used in crop production (e.g., fertilizers, crop protection products, diesel/electricity carriers) delivered for use at the farm. This is a generic aggregation step to connect upstream input production with on-farm operations; cowpea-specific input rates are not provided in the flow context.; System boundary is cradle-to-farm gate as indicated by the flow (production mix at farm gate; harvested grain unprocessed).; No post-farm processing (cleaning, drying, milling) is included beyond what is minimally required to classify the output as 'harvested grain, unprocessed'.; Input types and process-chain structure follow a generic crop/legume cradle-to-farm-gate template; cowpea-specific agronomy details are not provided in the flow context and are not assumed beyond generic operations.
