1. Scope and Applicability

This PCR guides a foreground data package for coconuts produced in managed perennial coconut-palm systems and transferred as coconuts in shell at a declared farm, primary-conditioning, storage, or hand-off gate. It covers palm establishment and replacement, productive-palm management, harvest and collection, optional dehusking that leaves the hard shell intact, cleaning, grading, storage, and the declared gate hand-off.

The canonical reference-flow identity is the platform record Coconuts, in shell, classified as CPC 3.0 01460, with the platform qualifier Production mix, at farm gate; Fresh, unprocessed produce. A dataset must disclose whether the declared gate is the whole fruit at the fresh farm gate, a dehusked coconut with shell retained, or an extended conditioned or stored lot. These states must not be silently mixed.

This PCR applies to conventional, organic, rain-fed, irrigated, mixed-crop, and smallholder or estate routes when the cultivar or cultivar group, geography, palm age, crop year, harvest maturity, husk status, shell condition, moisture basis, quality state, and gate are disclosed. It excludes nursery operations except as upstream inputs, shell removal, splitting or hatcheting, kernel or coconut-water recovery, copra, coconut milk, desiccated coconut, coconut oil, coir or shell processing, retail packaging, consumer use, and transport or storage after the declared gate. It does not select an Other or n.e.c. product category.

3. Reference Flow

Field	Value
What	Coconuts in shell at the declared gate, with the hard shell retained and husk status declared
How much	1,000 kg net accepted coconuts in shell
How well	Cultivar or cultivar group; production country, region, and climate; palm age and productive status; crop year; fresh or conditioned state; husk status; shell integrity; maturity; size or grade; accepted, downgraded, rejected, and loss mass; husk fate; and gate
How long or cycle	One declared crop year within the perennial palm productive life; establishment, immature years, replacement, and removal are allocated over the declared palm-life and accepted-output basis
reference_flow_link	reference_product_at_declared_handoff

Field	Value
Reference amount	1000
Reference product flow	Coconuts, in shell
Reference flow property	Mass `93a60a56-a3c8-11da-a746-0800200b9a66`
Reference unit group	Units of mass `93a60a57-a4c8-11da-a746-0800200c9a66`
Reference unit	kg
Required qualifiers	cultivar or cultivar group; palm block and geography; establishment year, palm age, productive status, and replacement events; soil and climate; irrigation status and water source; crop year or averaging period; harvest maturity; whole-fruit or dehusked state; husk status; moisture basis; shell condition; size or grade; accepted, downgraded, rejected, and loss mass; husk destination; storage duration and condition; and gate

The required qualifiers must be declared in dataset metadata, process notes, the reference-flow comment, product description, or an equivalent data-package field. Net product mass excludes container tare. The platform identity is the fresh farm-gate product flow; dehusking, grading, drying, or storage is an extended gate and must retain that qualifier rather than being represented as a new product category. A shelled or split coconut must not be used as the reference product for this PCR.

Each foreground dataset must explicitly select one actual route, declared gate, product state and output row. Reconcile the selected terminal route with reference_product_at_declared_handoff; normalize that handoff output to the reference quantity and retain preceding-stage outputs as measured transfers. Raw weighing, mass reconciliation and lot traceability requirements continue to apply.

The sole reference output is reference_product_at_declared_handoff, receiving the selected actual route product at the declared gate. Existing route-output ids identify the source and physical state; they are no longer individually fixed to the reference quantity.

4. Measurement and Unit Rules

rule_id	Applies to	Required property	Required unit	Rule
`reference_mass`	accepted reference product	Mass `93a60a56-a3c8-11da-a746-0800200b9a66`	kg	Express the reference as net accepted coconuts in shell at the declared gate and exclude container tare.
`fresh_or_dehusked_gate`	reference and gate outputs	Mass and declared product state	kg and declared state	Keep fresh whole-fruit, dehusked-with-shell, conditioned, and stored gate states separate. Do not use a dehusked amount as a fresh whole-fruit amount without a measured mass conversion and husk fate.
`yield_and_output_basis`	orchard, harvest, conditioning, and storage outputs	Mass and area	kg and ha	Record harvested fruit, accepted grades, husk, field loss, rejects, foreign material, storage losses, and unexplained losses for the same palm-year, lot, or reporting period before normalization.
`moisture_and_freshness_basis`	harvested, conditioned, stored, and accepted coconuts	Mass and moisture or freshness descriptor	kg and declared fraction or class	Preserve as-received mass and moisture or freshness class. Convert between states only with measured mass and a transparent water or dry-matter equation.
`shell_and_maturity_quality`	accepted in-shell product	declared quality properties	declared unit	Retain maturity class, shell integrity, cracks, germination, mold, insect damage, foreign material, size or grade, and freshness as attributes; do not substitute a universal quality default.
`palm_life_allocation_basis`	establishment, replacement, and immature-palm inputs	area, time, or mass activity property	ha, palm-year, or kg product	Allocate perennial establishment, immature years, replacement palms, and removal over the declared palm life and accepted output basis; disclose non-bearing years and replacement events.
`nutrient_product_and_n_basis`	nutrient and soil-amendment inputs	product and nutrient mass	kg product and kg N, P2O5, or K2O	Record formulated product mass and documented nutrient content separately. Nitrogen emission calculations use declared kg N.
`water_basis`	irrigation and wet handling	volume or mass	m3 or kg	Distinguish delivered irrigation water, natural-resource withdrawal, drainage or consumption indicators, and optional wet-cleaning water. A rain-fed or dry-conditioning route records a justified zero for supplied water.
`energy_inventory`	orchard, harvest, dehusking, grading, and storage	mass, volume, or energy	kg, L, MJ, or kWh	Preserve carrier, unit, operation, equipment, period, and conversion basis. Keep fuel, electricity, and thermal conditioning energy distinguishable.
`packaging_quantity`	optional in-scope storage packaging	mass or item count	kg, g, or item	Record packaging material mass or item count with package capacity, reuse status, and lot assignment when packaging crosses the declared gate boundary.

5. System Boundary

The default foreground boundary runs from the declared palm-orchard starting condition through perennial palm management, harvest and collection, and the fresh farm-gate hand-off of accepted coconuts in shell. An extended route additionally includes dehusking that leaves the hard shell intact, cleaning, grading, storage, and the declared post-harvest gate. Upstream production of planting material, fertilizers, crop-protection products, supplied irrigation water, energy carriers, machinery services, and packaging uses representative background datasets. Shell removal, splitting, kernel or coconut-water recovery, copra, oil, milk, coir, retail, post-gate transport, and post-gate storage are outside the default boundary.

Boundary Abstraction

Field	Value
declared_starting_condition	palm-orchard site before or at establishment, with planting material and purchased management inputs crossing the foreground boundary; prior land use and existing palm history are disclosed
starting_condition_role	start of managed perennial coconut production and palm-asset accounting
product_classification_scope	CPC 3.0 `01460`, Coconuts, in shell; shelled, split, kernel, water, oil, copra, coir, and downstream coconut products are outside this PCR
recursive_input_rule	Same-category planting material or retained coconuts crossing the boundary are recorded as upstream inputs and are not recursively expanded into another in-shell product output. Internal hand-offs between orchard, harvest, conditioning, grading, and storage are process links and are not additional market outputs.
upstream_dataset_requirement	Use representative upstream datasets for nursery material, nutrient products, crop protection, irrigation supply, fuel, electricity, dehusking or grading services, packaging, machinery services, and waste treatment when these inputs cross the boundary.
disclosure	cultivar and palm block; geography, soil, climate, and land history; establishment year, palm age, productive life, and replacement; irrigation source and quality; nutrient and crop-protection records; harvest maturity; whole-fruit or dehusked state; moisture or freshness; shell quality; grade, reject, husk, and storage records; gate; and any intended husk co-product hand-off

6. Process Inventory Structure

The foreground route is batch-based at harvest, dehusking, grading, and storage, even when palm management is recorded continuously. Each harvest round, conditioning batch, grade lot, and storage receipt receives a batch or campaign identifier with a declared start, end, input set, output set, cleaning or changeover event, and reporting period. Shared equipment and shared-run burdens are assigned once to the relevant batch or campaign.

A total storage-decrease screen including evaporation or unexplained difference cannot be applied to this Waste amount; no bound generates a quantity or replaces recipient evidence.

Process: Product Measurement at the Declared Handoff (`declared_reference_handoff`)

This node records the actual product handoff at the existing system boundary for reconciliation and reference-quantity normalization. It adds no physical processing and does not presume drying, cooling, storage, packaging or transport. Each data package declares one actual route, one terminal product state, moisture or dry-matter basis, and gate. Feed only the accepted product delivered by that route at that gate into this node; do not add other routes as extra inputs. Record co-products separately and apply Section 7. Count preceding inputs, losses and emissions once. Normalize using the measured accepted net mass at the handoff; this measurement node changes neither mass, yield nor allocation.

7. Allocation and Co-product Handling

rule_id	applies_to	Rule	source_ids
`allocation_01`	palm management and harvest with an intended husk output	Prefer process subdivision when palm, harvest, dehusking, husk collection, and nut records are independently available. When husk is deliberately collected and transferred as an intended co-product, allocate shared burdens by measured dry-matter mass; if dry-matter data are unavailable, use measured as-received mass and disclose the limitation.	`iso-14044-2006`; `fao-coconut-postharvest-operations`
`allocation_02`	husk retained on site or discarded	If husk remains on the field, is composted without an intended product hand-off, or is discarded as residue, do not assign a co-product credit. Retain its mass and fate as residue or waste and assign shared burden to the intended in-shell coconut output.	`iso-14044-2006`; `mass-balance-identity`
`allocation_03`	premium, standard, and downgraded in-shell grades	Use physical mass allocation between mutually exclusive accepted grade outputs when common conditioning burdens cannot be subdivided. Grade-specific operations remain with the grade receiving them; do not allocate the same lot to both a grade row and an aggregate output row.	`iso-14044-2006`; `mass-balance-identity`
`allocation_04`	perennial palm periods and phases	Annualize establishment, immature years, replacement, intercropping attribution, and removal over the declared palm life and accepted output basis. Link every input and output to a crop year or lifecycle phase; do not count a replacement event in both the original and replacement palm phases.	`fao-coconut-postharvest-operations`; `iso-14044-2006`
`allocation_05`	downgraded, reworked, rejected, and recovered lots	Keep rejected and downgraded lots separate from accepted product. Rework retains the producing-node burden and is linked once; recovered or intentionally marketed material requires a declared destination and allocation decision; discarded material receives its declared treatment burden.	`mass-balance-identity`; `iso-14044-2006`
`allocation_06`	batch, campaign, and changeover attribution	Link palm, harvest, conditioning, dehusking, grading, and storage inputs and outputs to the batch or campaign that generated them. Record cleaning and changeover events once and do not allocate shared-run burdens to more than one batch without a documented driver.	`mass-balance-identity`; `iso-14044-2006`

The hard shell remains part of the in-shell reference product and is not a separate co-product in this PCR. Kernel, coconut water, copra, oil, milk, coir, and shell-removal outputs belong to downstream coconut-product PCRs and must not be introduced into this inventory. No output may be counted both as a marketed husk co-product and as orchard or conditioning residue.

8. Foreground Data Collection, Calculation, and Quality Rules

Inventory completeness: conditional named cards are examples of individual exchanges, not an exhaustive recipe or a requirement to use those products. Before completing a foreground package, enumerate every actual planting stock, nutrient, crop-protection formulation, asset material, operating service, carrier, packaging material, waste stream and applicable elementary substance separately, using its physical identity, state, native property/unit, origin or receiving compartment, and measured or method-calculated quantity. Missing identity or quantity remains a completeness gap, never an assumed zero. Preserve the actual lot and phase basis; do not sum intermediate transfers as additional final output or duplicate burdens included in purchased services.

Retain raw site, lot, cycle and stage quantities and denominators in each collection protocol. Reconcile stocks, losses, moisture and co-product attribution first, then normalize: normalized exchange = attributable raw exchange × declared reference quantity / accepted hand-off product quantity on the same boundary and measurement basis. Apply perennial-establishment and shared-operation attribution before this normalization. Never set an internal-transfer quantity equal to the final reference quantity. Per declared reference flow means the amount, unit and product state in section 3; the data package must declare its actual route and gate.

Keep terms matched to the same lot, period and moisture basis; closing stock is neither dispatched output nor loss.	lot weights and fates	reconciled mass balance	`mass-balance-identity`
`calc_03`	whole-fruit to dehusked lots	`dehusked mass = whole-fruit input mass − measured husk and non-product losses`; do not infer husk mass from an unrelated average when a lot record exists.	input/output mass; husk record; loss record	state- and fate-corrected product mass	`mass-balance-identity`; `fao-coconut-postharvest-operations`
`calc_04`	marketed husk co-product	If husk is intended and transferred, apply measured dry-matter mass allocation to shared harvest and dehusking burdens; if not intended, model residue fate without co-product credit.	coconut mass; husk mass; moisture or dry matter; declared destination	allocated burdens and co-product share	`iso-14044-2006`
`calc_05`	grades, downgraded, reworked, and rejected lots	Grade outputs must be mutually exclusive. Accepted output equals input less husk, declared downgraded, rework, reject, foreign-material, water-loss, and unexplained-loss terms; rework is linked once.	batch input; grade and reject records	normalized output rows	`mass-balance-identity`
`calc_06`	storage	On one matched lot, period and moisture/component basis, reconcile opening stock + external receipts = accepted dispatch + other documented external transfers + actual discarded removals + independently evidenced physical losses + closing stock + signed unexplained difference. Internal movements cancel once. Measure discarded material by identity and destination; evaporation/respiration or other supported physical losses are separate from Waste. The signed difference is an investigation item, never automatically a measured loss, waste exchange or emission. Keep actual measurements and uncertainty; do not clip or infer zero. Attribute supported external quantities and normalize once to matched accepted final output.	lot/period stocks, receipts, dispatch, other transfers, weighed waste, supported physical losses and measurement uncertainty	separate material-waste, physical-loss and unexplained-difference ledgers; supported exports per final reference	`mass-balance-identity`
`chemical_species_mass_accounting`	`elementary_nutrient_emissions`	Final elementary exchanges use the mass of the identified substance and one actual receiving compartment. Keep nutrient/activity ledgers separate: species-specific N2O-N × 44/28 gives N2O, NH3-N × 17/14 gives NH3, nitrate-N × 62/14 gives nitrate, and phosphate-P × 95/31 gives phosphate. If the selected flow is elemental phosphorus instead, report kg P and convert phosphate mass by 31/95 only when that species basis is evidenced. Apply a conversion exactly once only when the method output is on the elemental basis; measured compound mass is not reconverted. Total nutrient losses cannot be assigned to a single species without a supported split, and residual/retained soil nutrient is not an emission. Keep direct/indirect pathway ledgers and avoid repeating a pathway already included in the chosen method or upstream inventory. Factor uncertainty ranges screen factors on their stated basis, not final compound amounts or admissible site emissions. Normalize the attributable compound mass once using the accepted reference quantity and the matched measured output. Unknown activity, identity or compartment remains an evidence gap and blocks a completeness claim.	`cp_coconut_emission_records`; species-specific activity ledger, method pathway and factor basis, matched accepted output	Identity-specific exchanges and reconciled activity records

Environmental Coverage Calculation Rules

rule_id	Applies to	Formula or rule	Inputs	Output	source_ids
`calc_managed_environment_coverage`	actual managed-production nodes	For the actual owned managed-production node(s), require an applicability ledger for direct soil N2O, volatilisation/deposition-derived indirect N2O, leaching/runoff-derived indirect N2O, NH3/NOx and nutrient losses, plus actual liming/urea-use CO2. Primary calculation precedence is a representative pathway measurement, then a validated site/national method applicable to the crop, soil and management; otherwise use the compatible 2006 IPCC/2019-refined managed-soil equations and climate/input-specific factor selection for N2O and lime/urea CO2. Retain the exact edition, equation, tier, activity and factor units, climate and management applicability; no universal dose or emission factor is prescribed. Non-soil/protected routes need a method valid for their actual medium; do not force soil factors onto an inapplicable route. Use the same period/field N ledger for synthetic and organic additions, residues, actual relevant mineralisation/organic-soil and excreta pathways; demonstrate absent pathways rather than infer zero. Calculate direct and each indirect component separately, then assign each once to matching existing or new concrete cards; never add a total to its components. Convert N2O-N to molecular N2O by 44/28 once. NH3, NOx and nutrient/pesticide loss require an applicable measured or documented substance/fate model; total N/P or an unexplained balance residual is not a compound release. Keep actual receiving compartments and molecular versus elemental/reporting bases explicit; indirect formation does not remove the same N from the source ledger twice. Include actual local combustion releases separately using fuel-specific combustion-only methods; purchased electricity/heat/services retain upstream coverage once. Add one identity-specific exchange only for a supported release and reuse an existing matching card, with verified UUID or explicit unresolved identity. Missing applicable method/activity/factor/identity blocks completeness; it is not a justified zero. Attribute raw activity/release totals and normalize once to the matched accepted reference output.	cp_phase1_environment_coverage	attributed native environmental quantities per matched final reference	`review-ipcc-soils-2019`
`calc_managed_land_coverage`	actual managed-production nodes	For each actual owned managed-production site, collect the occupied area and dated occupation intervals, including attributable establishment/immature and production periods. Occupation is area multiplied by actual duration, converted explicitly to the selected area-time unit (1 ha = 10,000 m2; time in years); hectares per crop-cycle alone are not an area-time result without duration. Partition or take the union of overlapping establishment/management intervals so the same area-time is counted once, with shares across actual co-users summing to one. Record evidenced land transformation separately by actual from/to land class, event area and date under the declared land-use method; transformation has area units and is not added to occupation. Planting, continued occupation or missing prior-land data do not establish a transformation or zero transformation. Preserve actual historical-event attribution and carbon-stock/emission method coverage where applicable; no invented land conversion or generic carbon credit. Instantiate separate compatible elementary identities with verified UUIDs or explicit unresolved identities; attribute once and normalize to the matched final reference. Purchased completed biological inputs inherit compatible upstream land coverage once instead of duplicating it locally. Missing applicable land identity, area, duration or prior-state evidence remains a completeness gap; documented no transformation is a valid absence.	cp_phase1_environment_coverage	attributed native environmental quantities per matched final reference

System boundary rules · 6

Rule ID	Applies to	Rule	Source IDs
`system_boundary_rule_1`	foreground_system_boundary	The default foreground boundary runs from the declared palm-orchard starting condition through perennial palm management, harvest and collection, and the fresh farm-gate hand-off of accepted coconuts in shell. An extended route additionally includes dehusking that leaves the hard shell intact, cleaning, grading, storage, and the declared post-harvest gate. Upstream production of planting material, fertilizers, crop-protection products, supplied irrigation water, energy carriers, machinery services, and packaging uses representative background datasets. Shell removal, splitting, kernel or coconut-water recovery, copra, oil, milk, coir, retail, post-gate transport, and post-gate storage are outside the default boundary.
`boundary_palm_to_farm_gate`	all conforming datasets	Include perennial palm establishment, immature years, productive management, harvest, collection, and the declared fresh farm-gate hand-off of accepted coconuts in shell.	fao-coconut-postharvest-operations, iso-14044-2006
`boundary_dehusking_extension`	extended post-harvest route	Include dehusking, cleaning, grading, and storage only when the declared dataset gate extends beyond the fresh whole-fruit farm gate. Report the extended gate and do not relabel it as the platform fresh/unprocessed state.	fao-coconut-postharvest-operations, codex-coconut-hygiene-cxc-4-1971
`boundary_perennial_palm_disclosure`	establishment and replacement	Allocate establishment, immature years, replacement palms, and removal over the declared palm life and accepted-output basis; disclose life, non-bearing years, intercropping, and replacement events.	fao-coconut-postharvest-operations, iso-14044-2006
`boundary_no_shell_removal`	in-shell product	Retain the hard shell in the product boundary. Exclude hatcheting or shell removal, splitting, kernel separation, coconut-water recovery, copra, oil, milk, desiccated coconut, coir, and shell processing.	codex-coconut-hygiene-cxc-4-1971, fao-coconut-postharvest-operations
`boundary_quality_and_fate`	all outputs	Separate accepted in-shell coconuts, husk, downgraded lots, rejected fruit, foreign material, dust, water loss, storage loss, and unexplained loss by measured mass and declared fate.	fao-coconut-postharvest-operations, mass-balance-identity

Allocation rules · 7

Rule ID	Applies to	Rule	Source IDs
`allocation_01`	palm management and harvest with an intended husk output	Prefer process subdivision when palm, harvest, dehusking, husk collection, and nut records are independently available. When husk is deliberately collected and transferred as an intended co-product, allocate shared burdens by measured dry-matter mass; if dry-matter data are unavailable, use measured as-received mass and disclose the limitation.	iso-14044-2006, fao-coconut-postharvest-operations
`allocation_02`	husk retained on site or discarded	If husk remains on the field, is composted without an intended product hand-off, or is discarded as residue, do not assign a co-product credit. Retain its mass and fate as residue or waste and assign shared burden to the intended in-shell coconut output.	iso-14044-2006, mass-balance-identity
`allocation_03`	premium, standard, and downgraded in-shell grades	Use physical mass allocation between mutually exclusive accepted grade outputs when common conditioning burdens cannot be subdivided. Grade-specific operations remain with the grade receiving them; do not allocate the same lot to both a grade row and an aggregate output row.	iso-14044-2006, mass-balance-identity
`allocation_04`	perennial palm periods and phases	Annualize establishment, immature years, replacement, intercropping attribution, and removal over the declared palm life and accepted output basis. Link every input and output to a crop year or lifecycle phase; do not count a replacement event in both the original and replacement palm phases.	fao-coconut-postharvest-operations, iso-14044-2006
`allocation_05`	downgraded, reworked, rejected, and recovered lots	Keep rejected and downgraded lots separate from accepted product. Rework retains the producing-node burden and is linked once; recovered or intentionally marketed material requires a declared destination and allocation decision; discarded material receives its declared treatment burden.	mass-balance-identity, iso-14044-2006
`allocation_06`	batch, campaign, and changeover attribution	Link palm, harvest, conditioning, dehusking, grading, and storage inputs and outputs to the batch or campaign that generated them. Record cleaning and changeover events once and do not allocate shared-run burdens to more than one batch without a documented driver.	mass-balance-identity, iso-14044-2006
`allocation_rule_7`	foreground_burden_allocation	The hard shell remains part of the in-shell reference product and is not a separate co-product in this PCR. Kernel, coconut water, copra, oil, milk, coir, and shell-removal outputs belong to downstream coconut-product PCRs and must not be introduced into this inventory. No output may be counted both as a marketed husk co-product and as orchard or conditioning residue.

`validation_05`	dehusking and quality	Whole-fruit input, husk, accepted in-shell product, grade, downgraded/rework, reject, foreign material, water loss, and residuals are mutually exclusive and mass-balanced.	mass-balance-identity, fao-coconut-postharvest-operations
`validation_06`	storage and gate	Opening stock, receipts, dispatches, closing stock, storage damage, product state, storage duration, and gate output reconcile. Storage losses are excluded from accepted output.	mass-balance-identity, fao-coconut-postharvest-operations

`validation_08`	evidence and disclosure	All important quantitative flows have a foreground collection rule and candidate range or method constraint; estimates, unresolved identities, gate state, husk fate, and evidence limitations are disclosed.	fao-coconut-postharvest-operations, mass-balance-identity
`validation_09`	batch and campaign records	Every harvest round, conditioning batch, grade lot, and storage receipt has a declared boundary, linked inputs and outputs, cleaning or changeover status, and reporting period; shared-run burdens are not counted twice.	mass-balance-identity
