Life-Cycle Assessment in Agri-Food Systems and the Wine Industry-A Circular Economy Perspective.
Review in Foods (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Rapid population growth, climate change, and resource depletion pose significant challenges to global food production, demanding sustainable solutions. A Life-Cycle Assessment (LCA) provides a structured framework for evaluating the environmental impact of food systems throughout their entire life cycle. This review examines how an LCA can be integrated with circular economy principles to address sustainability challenges, optimize resource use, and minimize waste in food and alcoholic beverage production. A systematic review of LCA applications in the agri-food sector was conducted, analyzing studies published across different regions. The selection criteria included relevance to circular economy strategies, waste valorization approaches, and assessing environmental impacts using LCA methodologies. The analysis explores explicitly the synergy between food and wine production within the broader agri-food system, considering shared sustainability challenges and opportunities for resource optimization. Key methodologies include cradle-to-grave assessments and the evaluation of waste-to-resource technologies. The findings demonstrate that LCA effectively identifies critical environmental hotspots, enabling the implementation of eco-design and resource recovery practices. Circular strategies, such as the use of renewable energy, precision agriculture, and nutrient recovery, significantly enhance sustainability. However, gaps remain in accounting for social and regional variability, as well as in integrating advanced technologies. When combined with circular economy principles, LCA provides actionable insights for policy development and sustainable practices. Advancing LCA methodologies and fostering multi-stakeholder collaboration are essential for creating resilient and environmentally responsible agri-food systems.
