Data or statistical facts on the situation and perspectives of agri-food systems and the impact of policies
1000 personalized technical assistance interventions were carried out by INIA specialists to improve goat management, nutrition, and health practices in rural areas of Peru, strengthening productive capacities and the performance of the caprine production system (INIA, 2025).
68% of Peru’s 2 million goats are concentrated in the northern coast, south-central zone, and Andean region, areas where precipitation ranges from 0–500 mm per year in arid and semi-arid zones, to elevations above 3,000 m a.s.l. with greater water availability, reflecting contrasts in forage supply and productive potential (INIA, 2025).
13,000 goat producers in Peru benefit from the PROCAP Investment Project, which promotes research, technical assistance, and productive strengthening in goat farming (INIA, 2025).
6 tons per hectare exceeds Iniap seed varieties, compared to the national average of 4.8 tons (Redacción El Universo, 2025).
4 hectares represents the minimum plot size (excluding cattle production) from which geolocation must be provided using polygons with enough latitude and longitude points to outline the perimeter of the land (Sarmiento, 2025).
0.5 hectares as minimum area, trees higher than 5 metres and canopy cover of more than 10% define the technical criteria to classify land as forest under the European Deforestation Regulation (Sarmiento, 2025).
6 decimal places minimum represents the precision required in latitude and longitude coordinates to identify the exact geographical location of land plots under the EUDR regulation (Sarmiento, 2025).
5 years represents the minimum period during which operators must collect, organize, and retain information, documents, and data demonstrating compliance from the date the product is placed on the market or exported (Sarmiento, 2025).
December 31, 2020 represents the cutoff date from which the regulation applies to deforestation and forest degradation that occurred thereafter (Sarmiento, 2025).
