Data or statistical facts on the situation and perspectives of agri-food systems and the impact of policies
LAC currently receives 3% of clean energy investments, well below its renewable potential (CAF, 2025).
92% increase in coffee yield per hectare among producers benefiting from the AGROIDEAS program (MIDAGRI, 2024).
61% increase in the value of coffee production among households supported by the AGROIDEAS iniciative (MIDAGRI, 2024).
44% increase in the value of guinea pig production among producers benefiting from the AGROIDEAS iniciative (MIDAGRI, 2024).
31% increase in self-employment income among households with longer participation in the AGROIDEAS iniciative (MIDAGRI, 2024).
The study assessed how precision technologies—such as sensors, GIS, and drones—relate to agricultural input management in the San Martín region of Peru. Based on surveys of 120 producers, it found that productivity and sustainability positively influence efficient input management, while costs, limited infrastructure, and resistance to change are the main barriers to their adoption
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.
2.9% per year was the growth of agricultural output in LAC since 1961, driven by a 1.7% annual TFP (Total factor productivity) increase (IBD, 2025).
30% declines in sustainable productivity in Latin America and the Caribbean when environmental costs are included, lowering total factor productivity (TFP) to 0.14% per year. (IDB, 2025).
0.9% was the growth of agricultural Total Factor Productivity (TFP) in Latin America and the Caribbean between 2011 and 2020, signaling a marked slowdown in productivity (IBD, 2025).
