Data or statistical facts on the situation and perspectives of agri-food systems and the impact of policies
In the Mariño basin, agroecological practices enhance food self-sufficiency, family income, and create synergies between productivity, climate adaptation, and mitigation (Quispe et al., 2021).
5.7 million field jobs are generated in Peru from the production of the main Andean grains, including quinoa, cañihua, kiwicha or amaranth and chocho or tarhui.
127 thousand tons of Andean grains were produced in Peru in 2020, supporting the income of 125 thousand families.
Systematic review compiling existing research on the effects of climate change on Andean agriculture. It analyzes climate variables (temperature, precipitation, evapotranspiration), induced phenomena (soil erosion, glacier retreat, alterations in crops such as potatoes, quinoa, corn), and the vulnerability of small-scale farmers in the high Andes.
This study explores the shift toward a more sustainable oil palm policy in Peru, driven by environmental pressures and tensions with Indigenous peoples. Peru's oil palm policy shifted discursively toward sustainability, albeit without formal approval or Indigenous consultation, which generated tensions in its implementation (La Rosa Salazar, M. A., 2021).
208.8 MtCO2eq is the net greenhouse gas emissions target for Peru in 2030, without being conditioned on international financing (Government of Peru, 2020).
179.0 MtCO2eq is the conditional emissions target for Peru, subject to external financing and favorable conditions (Government of Peru, 2020).
Five coffee varieties, were assessed for 13 morphological traits and rust resistance. Colombia, Catimor, and Limani were highly resistant; Caturra was the most susceptible (Cosme-De La Cruz et al., 2020).
The study reveals that much of the research on the Coffee Cultural Landscape is limited and fragmented, which hinders its effective management as cultural heritage and aggravates the tensions between conservation, tourism and rural reality (Cruz-Rincón, D. F., 2024).
12% of the formal labor force in Peru, Colombia, Mexico, Costa Rica, Brazil, Chile and Argentina was engaged in agriculture, mainly in rural areas (FAO, 2020).
