Abstract

The supply chain of potato chips agroindustry products is very useful to be applied in various aspects, therefore it is necessary to continuously improve its performance. Factors that must be considered in the supply chain design of agricultural commodities and agro-industrial products in order to obtain a supply chain that is comprehensive, effective, efô€…­icient, responsive, fair and sustainable. Climate change is a major issue in sustainability, because it can cause dangerous temperature and sea level rise, drought, and others. Scientists throughout the world provide information that supports the fact that climate is changing and that this change is partly due to human activities through the release of Green House Gases (GHGs). However, lately, GHG emissions have increased, partly due to industrialization and changes in agriculture and land use. Based on this background, the authors conducted a study with the aim of analyzing the life cycle of the potato chip supply chain with carbon footprint methods in order to reduce environmental impact. In this research, carbon footprint models will be designed on potato chip agro-industry so that spots can be identiô€…­ied that have the potential to produce environmental impacts. Spot identiô€…­ication is done by analyzing the distribution and transportation of the potato supplier and the process of producing potato chips, so that the production process is environmentally friendly. The results of the design of the potato chip agro-industry carbon footprint model is that it can determine carbon emissions released along the supply chain of potato chips agroindustry and be measured quantitatively, so that stakeholders/actors involved in the supply chain can utilize them in the decision making process. So that it is expected to increase efô€…­iciency and reduce the environmental impact that occurs due to the production of potato chips and implement environmentally friendly and sustainable industries.
