ABSTRACT

Agricultural techniques and orchard management play an important role in food production sustainability and there is an increasing number of research papers that focus on food cradle-to-gate life cycle assessment. In addition, there is also an emerging body of research on short food supply chains and on whether or not proximity can be a proxy for sustainability in the agri-food system. The objective of this analysis is to consider the most relevant social and environmental impacts of the Environmental Footprint and Social Life Cycle Assessment in the citrus fruit sector and identify crucial hotspots. We will explore the relevance of the length of citrus fruit supply chains on maps of social and environmental impacts in order to reach more wiser sustainability-based decisions. The results obtained show mixed conclusions regarding the relevance and implications of choosing short food supply chains to achieve more sustainable food systems.

转变农业食品系统。亲密是否意味着可持续性?生产和运输战略如何影响社会和环境。比较西班牙、南非和美国的柑橘类水果产量

摘要

农业技术和果园管理在食品生产可持续性方面发挥着重要作用,越来越多的研究论文关注食品从摇篮到大门的生命周期评估。此外,关于短食品供应链以及邻近是否可以代表农业食品系统可持续性的研究也正在兴起。该分析的目的是考虑柑橘类水果行业的环境足迹和社会生命周期评估最相关的社会和环境影响,并确定关键热点。我们将探讨柑橘类水果供应链长度与社会和环境影响图的相关性,以便做出更明智的基于可持续性的决策。
