Última Food Miles, Carbon Footprinting and their potential impact on trade AgEcon Saunders, Caroline M.; Barber, Andrew; Sorenson, Lars-Christian. To obtain market access for NZ food exports to high value developed country markets exporters are having to comply and consider environmental factors such as carbon footprinting. This growth in demand for environmental attributes is shown in the rise of the food miles debate or concept. Food miles is a concept which has gained traction with the popular press arguing that the further food travels the more energy is used and therefore carbons emissions are greater. This paper assesses, using the same methodology, whether this is the case by comparing NZ production shipped to the UK with a UK source. The study found that due to the different production systems even when shipping was accounted for NZ dairy products used half the energy of their UK counterpart...

The greenhouse sector has reinvented itself as a technologically advanced and relatively environmentally friendly industry over the past 15 years. However it remains a high energy user. Two recent surveys have highlighted the potential impact on greenhouse grower costs of the proposed emissions charge on fossil fuels. Growers may be unable to pass on the extra costs due to competition on domestic and export markets from non-Kyoto countries. It is likely that the emissions charge would accelerate the rationalisation of the industry that has already been occurring, and in addition may lead to more profound changes such as the relocation overseas of larger growers. This paper draws out the likely implications of the proposed charge for the greenhouse sector...
