Sensitivity analysis:

è Comparison of various sources of soybean meal was

performed, showing similar environmental performance

between US and Bolivian soy, very different from

Brazilian soy´s important environmental impacts due to

clear-cutting of rain forest.

è The contribution of Peruvian fishmeal makes a great

difference (impacts wise) between omnivorous and

carnivorous feed compositions.

Goal and scope definition:

è Assess the contribution

of various feed ingredients

to the environmental

impacts associated to

aquafeed production.

è Investigate the specific

contribution of Peruvian

fishmeal to feeds for

omnivorous and

carnivorous cultured

species.

Conclusions:

• Construction and maintenance of (reduction, feed) plants

contribute negligibly to overall impacts

• Fuel use is the main contributor to impacts in all activities

(fishing, reduction, feed processing)

• Feed provision is the main contributor to impacts in intensive

Peruvian aquaculture

• The sourcing of feed ingredients is a critical factor for

associated environmental impacts of feeds

E.g. corn use for Colossoma feed is the key contributor to

differences in CED, toxicity (USEtox) and water depletion.

• Use of fish products for trout feed leads to important BRU

values.

� Bolivian soybean meal adapted from Brazilian soybean.

� Customised Peruvian and Iquitos energy mixes.

� Proxies used for corn, wheat and rice.
