Environmental LCA and Carbon Footprint of Cauliflower as Produced in Southeast Spain
Rasines L., San Miguel G., Molina-García Á., Artés-Hernández F., Hontoria E., (Corresponding) Aguayo E.
Topic:
Life cycle analysis (lca)
Southern Spain has an optimal climate for growing fruits and vegetables. Over 39,534 ha are currently dedicated to the production of cauliflower and broccoli in Spain, 33% of which correspond to the Region of Murcia. This type of intensive agriculture causes environmental impacts which must be...Read more

Review and evaluation of the methods for building the Carbon Farming Calculation Tool
(Corresponding) Oliveira M., Guerrero C., Panagopoulos T.
Topic:
Carbon market
Agriculture accounts for around 30% of total GHG emissions worldwide. Carbon calculators are vital to accurately measure GHG emissions from farms and decrease their impact through carbon harvesting techniques. This paper aims to review various carbon calculator models and group them into typologies...Read more
