1. Scope and Applicability

This PCR applies to site-specific foreground data packages for CPC 23927, Ginger, processed. Every package shall lock exactly one route—dry processing or preservation in brine—and one ginger input state, preparation style, final form, particle-size specification where relevant, and package specification. Dry powder and ginger in brine shall never be combined or averaged.

The scope includes on-site receiving, washing and trimming, conditional scraping/peeling/slicing, dry-route pretreatment, drying, dry cleaning and grading, conditional crushing/grinding/sieving, brine preparation, filling and sealing, conditional thermal treatment, packaging and release, sanitation, and conditional on-site wastewater treatment. Cultivation, inbound transport, production of purchased inputs, outbound distribution, retail, use and end-of-life are outside the foreground boundary.

System boundary rules · 6

Rule ID	Applies to	Rule	Source IDs
`sb_route_lock`	all foreground packages	Use exactly one dry-processing route or one ginger-in-brine route per data package; never average their raw materials, utilities, yields, packaging, wastes or emissions.	un-cpc-3-0-2025, codex-cxs-343-2021, codex-cxs-260-2007
`sb_foreground_gate`	foreground system	Start at receipt of the declared ginger state at the processing site and include controlled preparation, preservation, packaging, cleaning and conditional on-site wastewater treatment.	fao-ginger-postharvest-operations, jrc-fdm-bref-2019, eu-fdm-bat-2019-2031
`sb_upstream_links`	purchased products	Keep cultivation, purchased-ginger production, ingredient manufacture, packaging manufacture, electricity, heat, fuel and refrigerant production outside the foreground and link each purchased input to an upstream dataset.	eu-pef-2021-2279
`sb_downstream_exclusion`	downstream stages	Exclude outbound distribution, retail, preparation or consumption and end-of-life from the foreground; disclose any broader study boundary separately.	eu-pef-2021-2279
`sb_recursive_input`	same-category purchased dried ginger	When purchased dried ginger within the same processed-ginger category is used for a grinding-only route, retain it as a visible product input and link an independently bounded upstream dataset rather than recursively expanding this PCR.	eu-pef-2021-2279
`sb_release_basis`	reference product release	Include only net conforming processed ginger in the reference amount; packaging mass is excluded, while brine is included only when the declared sold product and net-content basis include it.	codex-cxs-260-2007, eu-fdm-bat-2019-2031

Allocation rules · 5

Rule ID	Applies to	Rule	Source IDs
`alloc_route_subdivision`	shared or alternative routes	Subdivide dry processing and brine processing, and further subdivide distinct product forms, before allocating any shared burden; a combined average is non-conforming.	eu-pef-2021-2279
`alloc_direct_measurement`	directly metered exchanges	Assign directly measured raw materials, utilities, wastes and emissions to the batch or line that generated them.	eu-fdm-bat-2019-2031, eu-pef-2021-2279
`alloc_shared_services`	shared utilities and cleaning	For an unavoidable shared exchange, use a documented physical causal driver such as sub-metered energy, equipment operating time, cleaned surface-time or measured wastewater volume; disclose the driver and do not impose a PCR default factor.	eu-fdm-bat-2019-2031, eu-pef-2021-2279
`alloc_residues`	ginger residues and off-spec material	Treat peel, screenings, dust, off-spec ginger and spent brine as waste unless documented records show a marketable co-product; if a co-product exists, disclose the physical relationship and allocation method without applying an unverified avoided-burden credit.	eu-pef-2021-2279
`alloc_mass_balance`	all product and residue outputs	Reconcile route-specific input mass to conforming product, retained packing medium, water removed, product residues, wastewater solids and recorded losses before normalization.	fao-ginger-postharvest-operations, eu-pef-2021-2279

Validation rules · 10

Rule ID	Applies to	Rule	Source IDs
`val_identity`	product identity	Confirm CPC 23927 processed ginger and reject raw ginger, ginger oil, oleoresin, preserved confectionery products and any product outside the declared dry or brine form.	un-cpc-3-0-2025, codex-cxs-343-2021, codex-cxs-260-2007
`val_route_exclusivity`	route metadata	Require exactly one route token, one raw-material state, one preparation style, one final product form and one packaging specification; reject dry/brine averages.	codex-cxs-343-2021, codex-cxs-260-2007, eu-pef-2021-2279
`val_reference_uuid`	reference flow identity	Require the reference product UUID, Mass flow-property UUID, Units-of-mass unit-group UUID and kg unit to match the PCR reference definition.
`val_reference_mass`	reference amount	Normalize to 1 kg net conforming processed ginger excluding packaging; for ginger in brine also disclose net contents, packing-medium treatment and drained ginger mass.	codex-cxs-260-2007, eu-fdm-bat-2019-2031
`val_atomic_inventory`	inventory exchanges	Require one specific exchange per row; reject selector or collection labels and require every unresolved non-reference UUID to remain blank and closed by manifest review metadata.	eu-pef-2021-2279
`val_primary_data`	foreground amounts	Require foreground_record or calculated_value from collected foreground records; reject undocumented defaults, ranges and reasoned estimates.	eu-fdm-bat-2019-2031, eu-pef-2021-2279
`val_mass_balance`	route mass balance	Require a reconciled batch mass balance and an explanation of losses, moisture removal, packing medium, residues and wastewater solids.	fao-ginger-postharvest-operations, eu-pef-2021-2279
`val_utility_and_emissions`	utilities and emissions	Require stage-specific electricity, steam, hot water, each fuel, refrigerant, wastewater stream, pollutant and air emission actually present; require explicit non-applicability evidence for omitted conditional exchanges.	jrc-fdm-bref-2019, eu-fdm-bat-2019-2031
`val_additives`	brine formulation	For each acid or preservative, require actual dose records, ingredient identity and current product/jurisdiction authorisation; Codex category permission is not a default recipe.	codex-cxs-260-2007, codex-gsfa-04-2-2-3-2025
`val_bilingual_structure`	bilingual record	Require identical process_id, row_id, selected-flow identity, UUID, controlled tokens, collection protocol and source-id order in English and Chinese.
