Towards harmonised and regionalised life cycle assessment of fruits: A review on citrus fruit.
ABSTRACT.- The citrus fruit sector is globally relevant. Considering the great contribution of agri-food systems to environmental impacts, assessing and reducing them can make a positive contribution to the environment. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a widespread tool used to quantify the complex environmental interactions of agri-food systems in general and perennial fruit crops in particular. However, methodological aspects need to be harmonised to perform useful and representative LCAs on fruits.
