초록

유채 재배 전과정이 환경에 미치는 영향을 전과정평가 기법으로 분석하였다. 유채재배 과정을 평가하기 위해 비료, 농약, 농기계 사용에 따른 에너지 소비량, 작업시간 등을 조사하여 평가의 기능 단위인 유채 1톤을 기준으로 분석하였다.
Eco-Indicator 95방법으로 8개 영향범주에 대해 전과정영향을평가한 결과 유채 1톤을 생산하는데 온실가스 216 kg CO_2-eq.,오존층 고갈 3.98E-05 kg CFC-11-eq., 산성화 1.78 kg SO_2-eq.,부영양화 0.28 kg PO_4-eq., 중금속 5.23E-03 kg Pb-eq., 발암물질 2.51E-05 kg B(a)p-eq., 스모그 1.24 kg SPM-eq., 에너지자원 6,460 MJ LHV의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이중 90%가 화학비료에서 기인하는 것으로 분석되었다. 유채 생산량이 1 톤 증가하였을 경우에 대한 민감도 분석에서는 배출량은 동일하였으나 단위 면적당 생산량이 증가하여 유채 1톤에 대한 환경 부하는 22% 감소하는 것으로 평가되었다. 따라서 친환경농업 또는 자원순환농업을 통하여 화학비료의 사용량을 줄이면 유채 재배에 있어 농업부문 온실가스 배출량이상당부분 감소될 것으로 판단되었다.

BACKGROUND: High input to the arable land is contributed to increasing productivity with causing the global environmental problems at the same time. Rapeseed cultivation has been forced to reassess its positive point for utilization of winter fallow field. The Objective of this study was performed to assess the environmental impact of rapeseed cultivation with double-cropping system in paddy rice on Yeonggwang district using life cycle assessment technique.
METHODS AND RESULTS: For assessing each stage of rapeseed cultivation, it was collected raw data for input materials as fertilizer and pesticide and energy consumption rate by analyzing the type of agricultural machinery and working hours by 1 ton rapeseed as functional unit. Environmental impacts were evaluated by using Eco-indicator 95 method for 8 impact categories. It was estimated that 216 kg CO2-eq. for greenhouse gas, 3.98E-05 kg CFC-11-eq. for ozone lazer depletion, 1.78 kg SO2-eq. for acidification, 0.28 kg PO4-eq. for eutrophication, 5.23E-03 kg Pb-eq. for heavy metals, 2.51E-05 kg B(a)p-eq. for carcinogens, 1.24 kg SPM-eq. for smog and 6,460 MJ LHV for energy resource are potentially emitted to produce 1 ton rapeseed during its whole cultivation period, respectively. It was considered that 90% of these potential came from chemical fertilizer. For the sensitivity analysis, by increasing the productivity of rapeseed by 1 ton per ha, potential environmental loading was reduced at 22%.
CONCLUSION(s): Fertilization affected most dominantly to the environmental burden, originated from the pre-use stage, i.e. fertilizer manufacturing and transporting. It should be included and assessed an indirect emission, which is not directly emitted from agricultural activities. Recycling resource in agriculture with reducing chemical fertilizer and breeding the high productive variety might be contribute to reduce the environmental loading for the rapeseed cultivation.
