PEC cal

Know and monitor GHG emissions from rural properties

PEC calc screens

The tool follows the life cycle approach and the guidelines of IDF (International Dairy Federation) Bulletin 520/2022, employing procedures compatible with ISO 14040, 14044 and 14067 standards and internationally validated databases for environmental load inventories.

The indicator used (functional unit) is Kg of CO2Eq/kg of milk produced (corrected to 4.0% fat and 3.3% protein - FPCM), informing the carbon footprint related to the production of 1 kg of FPCM (functional unit).

This indicator represents the total greenhouse gases (GHG; CO2, CH4, N2O), corrected for carbon equivalents according to their global warming potential, using AR6 (IPCC Sixth Assessment Report for GHG GWP) as a reference calculation.

The carbon footprint of milk production refers to the total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with milk production, including emissions from system management plus emissions from inputs consumed. Emissions associated with transportation to the dairy, industrialization, bottling, and marketing processes are not included in this carbon footprint calculation.
