| Research Abstract |
This study aimed to assess the environmental and economic impacts of organic forage production system in the organic dairy farms in Japan using the environmental accounting method. Environmental accounting is a useful methodology for the integrated assessment of costs and effects of producer's environmental conservation efforts. The results showed that organic forage production analyzed in this study was more environmentally friendly than conventional forage production, while it increased the costs of organic fertilizers and labor due to the absence of chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
