Environmental, economic and social impacts of intensive agricultural production, but also those regarding to international trade of fresh apples in Spain, were studied by the multivariate statistical method of principal components analysis (PCA). Environmental indicators were developed for 36 countries using life cycle analysis of apple cultivation and transport, weighting the results on a global or local scale. Economic and social indicators were also calculated considering macro and microeconomic aspects and also farm or society characteristics. PCA was applied to each set of indicators and aggregated indices were computed for each dimension of sustainability with the results of the analysis. The selected indicators explained with good agreement the differences in sustainability between countries and the synthetic indices ranked them all. Some of them showed a high relative sustainability, while other presented low values, due to low environmental, economic or social sustainability values of the aggregated indices.
