This article describes the results of a Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) for traditional and organic cultivation of sugar cane in Valle del Cauca. Eco-scores obtained for each case, shown that organic cultivation is less harmful, in environmental terms, than traditional one. In the last one, the biomasa burning process, made to facilitate the crop, is the principal environmental problem, while in the first one, it is the use of "pollinaza", an organic fertilizer. Based on these results recommendations were made to obtain significant reduction in the impact of the sugar cane cultivation.
