Abstract: Effects of Dutch consumption reach far beyond the country borders. The international consequences of consumption are related to imports of many commodities for consumptive needs. The goal of this study was to show the amount and distribution of land needed for Dutch national consumption, inside and outside the national borders. While this question has been investigated in general terms, the present study is motivated by the need to provide more accurate and precise product-level results that can be used in a practical way, for example to guide circular economy policy goals.
