12 non-governmental organizations, including FACRP, emerged as community advocates for watershed protection and sustainable agriculture in Trinidad and Tobago (Govia & Roopnarine, 2024).
30 hectares of land were transformed by the Fondes Amandes Community Reforestation Project, converting pastures into an organic agroforestry project (Govia & Roopnarine, 2024).
This study examined the relationship between air and sea surface temperatures, Peruvian organic agro-exports (2000–2022), and food security. It found that higher organic agro-exports reduce undernourishment globally and enhance access to healthy diets despite climate change (Coayla & Bedon, 2024).
300 billion per year until 2030 is the estimated cost of transforming agrifood systems and eradicating global hunger and malnutrition (ECLAC et al., 2024).
6.4% of the GDP of LAC countries is estimated as the average cost of malnutrition problems, ranging from malnutrition to overweight and obesity (ECLAC. et al, 2024).
23.4 billion per year on average (2001-2021) represented 0.67% of LAC GDP in public agrifood spending (ECLAC et al., 2024).
31% represents the increase experienced by flows destined for environmental protection during the decade between 2011 and 2021 in LAC (ECLAC. et al, 2024).
This study assessed crop diversity among 180 Peruvian farmers (2018–2022) using Shannon–Weiner and Margalef indices. Five crop types were identified; projections indicate growth in 15 families and decline in 9 by 2025 (Chavez et al., 2024).
80% of farmers in Colombia are family farmers (CNIE, 2016).
486,000 people in rural areas of Central America faced severe drought conditions between April and November 2023, affecting the main planting and harvesting seasons due to reduced rainfall associated with the El Niño phenomenon. (WFP, 2024).
