Ecoinvent Assumes that all pesticides are emitted to soil 2. PestLCI 2.0 Calculates emissions to air, surface water and groundwater Model adaptations • Inclusion of kiwifruit, modelling of shelterbelts • Updated macropore leaching calculation Model inputs • 9 pesticides identified from kiwifruit growers’ spray diaries • 9 spatial scenarios: 4 climatic zones in the Bay of Plenty, each with up to 4 different representative soils Life Cycle Impact Assessment  Characterization using characterization factors obtained with USEtox METHOD   Teunis J. Dijkman1, Karin Mueller2, Morten Birkved1  1: Division for Quantitative Sustainability Assessment, DTU Management Engineering, Technical University of Denmark, Kgs. Lyngby, Denmark 2: The New Zealand Institute for Plant and Food Research Limited, Hamilton, New Zealand AIM CONCLUSIONS • Emissions of different pesticides, calculated with PestLCI 2.0, span several orders of magnitude • Freshwater ecotoxicity impacts are dominated by fungicides, chlorpyrifos is the single main contributor to human toxicity impacts • Compared to PestLCI 2.0, using Ecoinvent as LCI methodology results in considerably higher impacts • The spatial variation of toxicity impacts is small Contributing to the development of a pesticide footprint for kiwifruit production in New Zealand, we aim to: • Model pesticide emissions from kiwifruit orchards in the Bay of Plenty, using 2 LCI approaches • Characterize human toxicity and freshwater ecotoxicity impacts of these emissions • Determine the relevance of spatial variation in emissions and impact calculations Pesticide active ingredient Function Application dose (kg/ha)  Chlorpyrifos Insecticide 0.5  Emamectin Benzoate Insecticide 0.002  Glyphosate   (early application) Herbicide 0.66  Glyphosate   (late application) Herbicide 0.66  Iprodione Fungicide 0.75  Methoxyfenozide Fungicide 0.1  Spirotetramat Insecticide 0.096  Thiacloprid Insecticide 0.19  Thiamethoxam Insecticide 0.1  Trifloxystrobin Fungicide 0.15 Scenario Climate Soil  1 Waihi Katikati sandy loam  2 Katikati Katikati sandy loam  3 Tauranga Katikati sandy loam  4 Tauranga Paenearoa sandy loam  5 Tauranga Ohinapanea loamy sand  6 Tauranga Oropi coarse sandy loam  7 Te Puke Paenearoa sandy loam  8 Te Puke Ohinapanea loamy sand  9 Te Puke Oropi coarse sandy loam  Ecoinvent N/A N/A LCI (PestLCI 2.0) LCIA Scenarios Pesticides applied RESULTS
