| Research Abstract |
This study developed methodology of life cycle assessment (LCA) considering environmental, social, economic impact in agri-food sector. As product level assessment, we implemented LCA of rice production in Japan and Thailand taking into account GHG emission estimation model in paddy field and social and economic impact such as labor input, production cost, and regional economy. Result revealed the assessment we proposed is widely applicable if assessment tools are developed. We also proposed forecasting methodology of life cycle environmental impact related to food consumption considering household characteristics change for country and regional level assessment.
