Abstract
The objectives of this study were to assess the potential environmental impacts that could be utilized to describe the current state of shrimp farming and propose alternative strategies for its management. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) was held based on stages goal and scope, life cycle inventory, life cycle impact assessment, and interpretation by using SimaPro v.9.3.0.3 software and CML IA baseline V3.07 impact assessment method. The findings of this study demonstrated that super intensive shrimp farming had a lower potential environmental impact than intensive farming. The study indicated that super intensive shrimp farming produces a lower abiotic depletion potential (ADP), global warming potential (GWP), marine aquatic ecotoxicity potential (MTP), acidification potential (AP), and eutrophication potential (EP) than intensive farming. Potential environmental impact can be minimized by choosing a more environmentally friendly source of electrical energy and pond lining material and increasing the efficiency of the use of electricity and feed.
