Life Cycle Assessment studies provide evidence of the benefits resulting from the BENEFIT-Med agrosystem

Based on data provided by Tunisian partners on the latest field trials conducted, life cycle inventories were established to feed mathematical models and calculate environmental life cycle results. The BLC3 Team took care of this evaluation. Overall, seed priming applied to the orphan legume target accession resulted in genotype- and treatment-specific impact, showing however clear advantages in terms of crop productivity. A parallel study performed on the Italian field trial has confirmed this trend.
