Abstract

This study was conducted to estimate the carbon footprint and to establish the database of the LCI (Life Cycle Inventory) for barely cultivation system. Barley production system was separated into the naked barley, the hulled barley and the two-rowed barley according to type of barley species. Based on collecting the data for operating LCI, it was shown that input of fertilizer was the highest value of 9.52E-01 kg $kg^{-1}$ for two-rowed braley. For LCI analysis focussed on the greenhouse gas (GHG), it was observed that carbon footprint were 1.25E+00 kg $CO_2$-eq. $kg^{-1}$ naked braley, 1.09E+00 kg $CO_2$-eq. $kg^{-1}$ hulled braley and 1.71E+00 $CO_2$-eq. $kg^{-1}$ two-rowed barley; especially two-rowed barley cultivation system had highest emission value as 1.09E+00 kg $CO_2$ $kg^{-1}$ barley. It might be due to emit from mainly fertilizer production for barley cultivation. Also $N_2O$ was emitted at 7.55E-04 kg $N_2O\;kg^{-1}$ barley as highest value from hulled barley cultivation system because of high N fertilizer input. The result of life cycle impcat assessment (LCIA), it was observed that most of carbon emission from barely cultivation system was mainly attributed to fertilizer production and cropping unit. Characterization value of GWP was 1.25E+00 (naked barley), 1.09E+00 (hulled barley) and 1.71E+00 (two-rowed barely) kg $CO_2$-eq. $kg^{-1}$, respectively.

보리생산체계의 탄소성적을 평가하기 위하여 쌀보리, 겉보리, 맥주보리로 구분하여 LCI database 구축하고 전과정 영향평가를 통한 잠재적 환경영향을 평가하였다. LCI 구축을 위한 영농 투입물과 산출물에 대한 데이터 수집결과 맥주보리의 경우 전반적인 투입량이 맥종 중 가장 높았으며, 특히 비료투입량이 9.52E-01 kg $kg^{-1}$ two-rowed braley로 다른 품종에 비해 월등히 높았으며, 이에 따른 포장에서의 직접대기배출량 ($CO_2$, $CH_4$, $N_2O$)도 9.74E-02 kg $kg^{-1}$ two-rowed braley로 가장 높게 나타났다. LCI 분석 결과 쌀보리, 겉보리, 맥주보리의 탄소성적 값은 각각 1.25E+00 kg $CO_2$-eq. $kg^{-1}$ naked braley, 1.09E+00 kg $CO_2$-eq. $kg^{-1}$ hulled braley, 1.71E+00 $CO_2$-eq. $kg^{-1}$ two-rowed barley였다. 영농투입량이 가장 많은 맥주보리의 탄소성적이 가장 높았다. $CO_2$는 주로 비료생산공정과 보리생산에서 발생하며, 품종 중에서 맥주보리의 $CO_2$ 발생이 1.09E+00 kg $CO_2$ $kg^{-1}$ barley으로 가장 높았다. $N_2O$는 질소시비에 의한 재배 포장의 배출량이 가장 많았고, 특히 질소시비량이 가장 많은 겉보리가 재배 중 직접배출량이 가장 많았고 값은 7.55E-04 kg $N_2O\;kg^{-1}$ barley였다. 전과정 영향평가 수행결과 GWP의 특성화 값은 쌀보리, 겉보리, 맥주보리가 각각 1.25E+00, 1.09E+00, 1.71E+00 kg $CO_2$-eq. $kg^{-1}$이었고, GWP 값에 영향을 주는 보리생산체계의 주요 요인는 비료생산과 보리재배 작업이었다.
