Évaluation de la durabilité du Miscanthus par l'analyse de cycle de vie : variabilité environnementale et études de cas
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: The bioeconomy relies on development agricultural biomass value chains to replace fossil resources. Miscanthus × giganteus combines high yield potential with low input requirements. But its environmental performances remain highly dependent on pedoclimatic conditions and management practices. This study compares two contrasting miscanthus cropping systems in Hauts-de-France: an ex-ante intensive scenario (UCAC) on low-soil-organic-matter sites, and an ex-post extensive scenario (MISTICC) on contaminated marginal lands. Territorial life cycle assessments (LCAs) show significant differences across all environmental indicators, with soil-carbon dynamics being the primary driver of the climate balance. These findings highlight the need for context-specific assessments to guide territorial bioeconomies.
