Zusammenfassung:The research was based on the Life Cycle Analysis of the production process in the agroindustrial plants of Agropecuaria Aliar S.A., to quantify carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. The ISO 14040 and 14044 methodologies were used to determine the carbon footprint. Using the methodologies CML 2001, IPCC 2007, IPCC 2013 and ReCiPe Midpoint, it was found that between 2018 and 2019, emissions increased to 1.6622xl09kgCO2eq; being energy consumption the main generator of these impacts. It was identified that the main generator of atmospheric emissions is the electrical energy consumed in the treatment plants.
