Overview

This CSO has been released by MPI in order to measure the GHG emissions “footprint” of a range of New Zealand agricultural products sold to overseas markets and how they compare to equivalent locally produced and sold food in export markets. The work will find the total greenhouse gas footprint for a selection of New Zealand agricultural products (inclusive of overseas transport) to selected overseas markets. It will compare this against the total greenhouse gas emissions of locally produced products (not inclusive of shipping) in the selected export markets. This work is intended to update food miles studies with similar aims from 10-15 years ago, but also to apply to a wider range of agricultural products and markets, reflecting current products of and markets of interest, including where the issue of food miles is becoming prominent. It is expected that the study will apply up to date GHG metrics and LCA methodologies for relevance and accuracy.
