The aim is to create practical guidelines for the LCA community and the main actors of the agro-food chains: farmers, manufacturing companies, consumers and others. The book is focused on some of the most relevant and productive agri-food supply chains, including olive oil, wine, cereals and derived products, meats, dairy products and fruit. The first chapter introduces key concerns, applications, and methodological uncertainties of the application of life cycle assessment (LCA) principles and practices to the agri-food sector, offering an overview of the main dietary issues, which acknowledges the importance of consumer behaviour. Chapter 2 focuses on the olive oil industry, an economically significant sector. The authors undertake a review of international LCA implementation, a description of LCA implementation problems and application guidelines. The third chapter surveys the wine sector, offering a critical review of existing LCA methodologies and case studies, and a description of scientifically sound environmental improvements suggested by published LCAs. Chapter 4 covers the principal cereal and derived products, presents conclusions and describes the main hot spots in the cereal supply chain. Chapter 5 explores livestock and derived edible products, a sector which has an important economical role and which is associated with adverse environmental effects, covering LCA implementations, methodological problems and best practices. The final chapter focuses on fruit products, among the less environmentally damaging foods in western diets. After an overview of the European fruit industry, the authors discuss methodological problems concerned with the application of LCA to the sector and propose practical guidelines. 000725115 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from PDF title page (viewed January 16, 2015). 000725115 650_0 $$aFood industry and trade$$xEnvironmental aspects. 000725115 650_0 $$aAgriculture$$xEnvironmental aspects. 000725115 650_0 $$aProduct life cycle. 000725115 7001_ $$aNotarnicola, Bruno,$$eeditor. 000725115 7001_ $$aSalomone, Roberta,$$eeditor. 000725115 7001_ $$aPetti, Luigia,$$eeditor. 000725115 7001_ $$aRenzulli, Pietro A.,$$eeditor. 000725115 7001_ $$aRoma, Rocco,$$eeditor. 000725115 7001_ $$aCerutti, Alessan K.,$$eeditor. 000725115 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319119397 000725115 852__ $$bebk 000725115 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-11940-3$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000725115 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:725115$$pGLOBAL_SET 000725115 980__ $$aEBOOK 000725115 980__ $$aBIB 000725115 982__ $$aEbook 000725115 983__ $$aOnline 000725115 994__ $$a92$$bISE
