Assessment of the environmental sustainability of livestock farming systems using integrated monitoring and Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) approaches

id="offer-description" class="ecl-u-type-heading-2 ecl-u-mt-none ecl-u-mb-l">Offer Description The research activities will focus on assessing the environmental sustainability of ruminant farming systems through the integration of production, management, and environmental data, also considering the main agronomic components associated with livestock production. The research will aim to establish a robust methodological framework for the development and validation of farm-level data collection protocols, the analysis of data obtained from emissions monitoring, and LCA application methodology to quantify environmental impacts across the livestock supply chain. The activities will include a scientific comparison between experimentally measured data and estimates generated by predictive models, the identification of key environmental impact hotspots, and the assessment of predictive scenarios associated with potential mitigation strategies. The overall objective will be to contribute to improving the environmental sustainability and resilience of livestock production systems.
