本研究は、トルコ・シリフケでの露地イチゴ生産のカーボンフットプリントをライフサイクルアセスメントで評価した。総CFは0.25052 kgCO2eq/kgで、栽培段階が77.56%を占め、肥料使用が主要な排出源である。20%の肥料削減でCFが9.83%減少する一方、太陽光灌漑の効果はわずか0.56%であった。感度分析により、肥料投入が支配的な排出要因であることが確認された。

This study assesses the carbon footprint of open-field strawberry production in Silifke, Turkey, using a cradle-to-farm-gate LCA. The total carbon footprint is 0.25052 kg CO2-eq per kg, with cultivation contributing 77.56%. Fertilizer use is the main hotspot; a 20% reduction in fertilizer lowers the footprint by 9.83%, while solar-powered irrigation reduces it by only 0.56%. Sensitivity analysis confirms fertilizer as the dominant driver.

日本のGX文脈において
本研究はトルコのイチゴ生産を対象としていますが、LCA手法や肥料最適化によるGHG削減の知見は、日本の農業分野におけるカーボンフットプリント削減にも応用可能です。日本の農水省が推進する「みどりの食料システム戦略」や、食品業界のGHG削減取り組みにとっても参考になるでしょう。
In the global GX context
This paper contributes region-specific LCA data for open-field strawberry production in Mediterranean conditions. It highlights fertilizer optimization as the most effective mitigation strategy, which is a key finding for global agricultural decarbonization. The minor impact of solar irrigation indicates that in some contexts, renewable energy in irrigation may not be the priority.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:Provides empirical LCA results for strawberry production and sensitivity analysis that can inform further research on agricultural carbon footprints and mitigation strategies.
🏢実務担当者:Fertilizer optimization is the key lever; for corporate sustainability teams in agricultural supply chains, this suggests focusing on precision agriculture to reduce fertilizer use.
🏛政策担当者:The study supports policies that incentivize fertilizer efficiency and yield stability to reduce agricultural emissions.
📄 Abstract（原文）
ABSTRACT Agricultural production is a significant contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions, highlighting the need for region‐specific assessments of climate impacts across food systems. This study evaluates the carbon footprint of open‐field strawberry production in the Silifke district (Mersin, Türkiye) using a process‐based Life Cycle Assessment approach with a cradle‐to‐farm‐gate system boundary and a functional unit of 1 kg of strawberries. Life cycle modeling was performed in SimaPro using background data from Ecoinvent 3.10, and impacts were quantified using the IPCC 2021 Global Warming Potential method. The results indicate a total carbon footprint of 0.25052 kg CO 2 ‐eq kg − 1 , placing the system within the lower range reported for Mediterranean strawberry production. The cultivation stage was the dominant contributor (77.56%), followed by raw material supply (22.44%). Fertilizer use, particularly nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (NPK) fertilizers, was identified as the primary emission hotspot. Scenario analysis showed that a 20% reduction in fertilizer application decreases the carbon footprint by 9.83%, while solar‐powered irrigation results in only a minor reduction (0.56%). Sensitivity analysis confirmed fertilizer inputs as the dominant emission driver (S ≈ 0.49), while electricity consumption has negligible influence. Yield sensitivity further showed that reduced productivity significantly increases carbon footprint, highlighting fertilizer optimization and yield stability as key mitigation strategies.
