Environmental Life Cycle Assessment of Mediterranean Tomato: Case Study of a Tunisian Soilless Geothermal Multi-tunnel Greenhouse
Despite the advantages that tomato production has on the economic balance of Tunisia, it may present an environmental pressure on the natural ecosystem. The main objective of this research is to determine the environmental impacts of soilless geothermal conventional multi-tunnel cherry tomato production located in Chenchou (South-West of Tunisia) using life cycle assessment methodology. The results obtained showed that fertilizers and energy sub-systems contribute to the majority of the impacts.
