DescriptionOverview of the initiative and its approach.
Yousustain.net is a web-based sustainability assessment platform for farmers, cooperatives, agrifood companies and consultants. It quantifies the environmental and social impacts of more than 20 crops production such as grape, olives, tomato, etc., through more than 190 agronomic and ecological key performance indicators (KPIs), including 20 primary metrics aligned with Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Product Environmental Footprint (PEF) norms, such as Human Toxicity Score, Dose Area Index, Treatment Frequency Index and many more.
TechnologyTechnology used by the initiative.
Users access Yousustain.net through a web-based interface and record field activities, inputs and management practices in a digital field notebook. The platform processes these data using built-in Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) models, predictive algorithms and standardized formulas to calculate more than 190 agronomic and ecological key performance indicators (KPIs). Results are displayed through dashboards with comparative scenarios and exported as certified reports compliant with ISO 14040/14067, supporting decision-making and sustainability reporting.
TargetUsers, groups, or communities targeted by the initiative.
The platform is used by farmers, cooperatives, agrifood companies and consultants working in crops such as vineyards, cereals, vegetables and olive groves. It supports both small and large-scale producers in assessing farm-level and supply chain sustainability performance.
