The impacts of nutrient- and health-optimal diets on the food system in Switzerland
We use an ex-ante model to analyze the impacts of dietary shifts on the food system. • Healthy diets increase consumption of plant-based foods. • Dietary shifts increase the crop area and reduce the livestock number. • Import dependency increases with healthy diets. • Environmental impacts result in trade-offs. Current dietary choices deviate from the recommended diet and are unhealthy. Food consumption is interlinked with the food system, and im…
Durum wheat pasta cooking: A combined assessment of the relevant quality, energy and environmental indicators
Developing context-specific frameworks for integrated sustainability assessment of agricultural intensity change: An application for Europe
Agriculture plays a central role in achieving most Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Sustainable intensification (SI) of agriculture has been proposed as a promising concept for safeguarding global food security, while simultaneously protecting the environment and promoting good quality of life. However, SI often leads to context-specific sustainability trade-offs. Operationalising SI thus needs to be supported by transparent sustainability a…
Reducing food’s environmental impacts through producers and consumers
The global impacts of food production Food is produced and processed by millions of farmers and intermediaries globally, with substantial associated environmental costs. Given the heterogeneity of producers, what is the best way to reduce food's environmental impacts? Poore and Nemecek consolidated data on the multiple environmental impacts of ∼38,000 farms producing 40 different agricultural goods around the world in a meta-analysis comparing va…
Evaluation of cost-effectiveness of organic farming support as an agri-environmental measure at Swiss agricultural sector level
Approaches for Addressing Life Cycle Assessment Data Gaps for Bio-based Products
Greenhouse gas mitigation in animal production: Towards an integrated life cycle sustainability assessment
Life cycle management on Swiss fruit farms: Relating environmental and income indicators for apple-growing
