Abstract
⺠Life Cycle Analysis of large-scale Pangasius aquaculture in Vietnam was performed. ⺠A footprint of the resources extracted from the natural environment was calculated. ⺠The cradle to farm gate life cycle is resource intensive regarding land and water. ⺠The feed supply chain is identified as hotspot to improve resource use efficiency. ⺠A new metric combining resource use efficiency and feed conversion is introduced.
