The agricultural sector in the world is facing social expectations to reduce energy consumption and environmental impacts; and at the same producing enough food and ber for the growing world population. The purpose of the present research to determine the economic, energy consumption, and environmental indicators in coriander seed production using novel approach of material ow cost accounting (MFCA) along with classical life cycle assessment (LCA). The positive output and negative energy were 25485 and 6742 MJ ha −1 , respectively. Energy e ciency, net energy gain, speci c energy, and energy productivity indicators were calculated as 0.6, -11944 MJ ha −1 , 17.4 MJ kg −1 , and 0.06 kg MJ −1 , respectively. The average production cost was calculated as 588 $ ha −1
