Data or statistical facts on the situation and perspectives of agri-food systems and the impact of policies
14% of the population was employed in agriculture in 2023 (CAF, 2025).
TFP in Latin America and the Caribbean grew by 1.1% annually between 1950 and 1975 (OECD, 2024).
This study evaluates the spatial distribution of cadmium (Cd) in soils cultivated with avocado (Persea americana) in different regions of Peru, identifying factors that influence its concentration, such as texture, pH, organic matter, and agricultural practices. It was determined that several areas have elevated levels of Cd, which represents a risk to food safety and exports, especially given the...
This study phenotypically characterizes 74 wild accessions of Myrciaria dubia (camu camu) from the INIA ex situ germplasm bank to identify variability relevant for genetic improvement, conservation, and sustainable use programs. Morphological, physical, and fruit quality characteristics were evaluated, revealing a wide diversity that can be used to select genotypes with higher yield and quality Im...
This study evaluates the effect of different bio-ferments on the morphology and quality of cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) seedlings under nursery conditions. Treatments were compared based on parameters such as height, stem diameter, number of leaves, and seedling quality. The results show significant improvements in growth when bio-ferments are applied, highlighting their potential as an agroecologic...
20.29 °C was the global average temperature recorded in 2024, with an anomaly of +1.18 °C (SENAMHI, 2024). This thermal increase is reflected in Peru through a higher frequency and intensity of droughts, floods, heat waves, cold spells, and landslides, affecting ecosystems, infrastructure, and productive sectors.
0.006 was the average DID effect on mean NDVI for citrus, indicating productivity improvement.
795, 565, 333 and 317 plans were executed in cotton, livestock, dairy and citrus respectively, demonstrating PRODAF's multi-channel focus.
The monthly NDVI signal shows greater variation in annual crops such as cotton and greater stability in perennial crops such as citrus.
Citrus productivity gains arise from systemic changes (e.g., irrigation, GAP) that materialize over time.
