| Abstract: | Background, aim, and scope We report the environmental assessment of the cultivation cycle of cauliflower (Brassica oleracea L. var. botrytis), chosen due to its high levels of natural bioactive compounds, using different fertilization practices. The functional units
used during the impact assessment were linked with the quantity produced, considering different units of commercialization,
or with the cauliflower quality, considering its antioxidant compounds content. Although nutrient content has been described
and used as a possible functional unit, using antioxidant compounds as a functional unit has not previously been published. |
