Chemical Ingredient Use Report

This document will go over how to filter and run the Chemical Ingredient Use Report.

This report shows the quantities of chemical components that are being applied via the spray module.The report will show the amount of chemical ingredient used over time based on the active percentage of that ingredient present in the chemical. If the chemical has Nitrogen, it will calculate the Carbon Equivalent of Nitrogen.

The Carbon Equivalent (kg CO2e) of Nitrogen is calculated using the following formula:

  • Nitrogen to Nitrous Oxide emission ratio: 1.17%

  • Nitrogen component of Nitrous Oxide ratio: 44 / 28

  • Carbon equivalent of 1 kg Nitrous Oxide ratio: 298:1

1 kg Nitrogen is equal to 0.0117 * 44 / 28 * 298 kg CO2e
