“…Secondly, emergy analysis (Brown and Ulgiati, 2004a, 2004bOdum, 1988Odum, , 1996 is used to capture an environmental viewpoint (eco-centric perspective) of the systems' functioning. This environmental accounting method has been applied extensively to agricultural systems (Alfaro-Arguello and Diemont, 2010;Castellini et al, 2006;Rydberg and Haden, 2006;Lefroy and Rydberg, 2003;Martin et al, 2006;Rótolo et al, 2007), but rarely applied specifically to milk production (Bastianoni and Marchettini, 2000;Vigne et al, 2013).…”

“…Em levantamento sobre a sustentabilidade do sistema tradicional de criação de bovino de corte, nos pampas da Argentina, Rótolo et al (2007) demonstraram que esse sistema depende de 61% da emergia advinda da chuva e a soma total de utilização de recursos da natureza é de 85%, sendo que a demanda de recursos advindos da economia significou apenas 4% do total de emergia. Os mesmos autores apontam a emergia como sendo um método eficiente de reconhecer e recompensar os agricultores e pecuaristas que usem métodos sustentáveis de produção.…”
