Data or statistical facts on the situation and perspectives of agri-food systems and the impact of policies
This study evaluates the impact of intercropping maize with native beans on the morphological growth, yield, and nutritional composition of forage intended for silage in the Peruvian Amazon. Treatments between maize monoculture and bean intercropping are compared, as well as different phenological stages (R2, R4, and R5). The results show improvements in protein, fiber, and productive parameters o...
This study characterizes goat production systems in the Peruvian Amazonian tropical dry forest using multivariate analysis. Productive, reproductive, nutritional, health, and socioeconomic variables were evaluated to identify producer typologies and understand the dynamics affecting the efficiency of the goat system. The analysis allowed for the distinction of groups with differentiated practices ...
9.5% was the share of business services after increasing from 5% (as reported over time) (ECLAC, 2025).
29.7% was Latin America and the Caribbean’s relative labor productivity compared to the European Union (ECLAC, 2025).
2.2% was the decrease in hourly productivity in Latin America and the Caribbean in 2024 compared to the previous year (ECLAC, 2025).
6.3% of GDP would be the losses associated with temperature increases in the region by 2030 (ECLAC, 2025).
In “almost all” cases, productive articulation initiatives (PAI) (in the same 20 countries) are managed by a decision-making body averaging 11 people, with composition mainly private sector (72.7%), then civil society (15.0%), public sector (10.2%), and academia (1%) (ECLAC, 2025).
It would have been 9.5% lower in 2023 under the reported counterfactual scenario (ECLAC, 2025).
In 2023, agriculture accounted for 12.1% of employment in Latin America and the Caribbean, versus 3.8% in the European Union, per the report’s employment-by-sector chart (ECLAC, 2025).
According to the report (ECLAC, 2025), 26.6% of the 497 Productive Articulation Initiatives (IAP) (20 countries, 2023–2025) have as their strategic focus access to new markets or internationalization.
