Data or statistical facts on the situation and perspectives of agri-food systems and the impact of policies
23% of the world’s forests and 60% of global biodiversity are located in Latin America and the Caribbean, highlighting the region’s strategic importance for ecosystem and biodiversity conservation. This significant share also reflects the critical role of LAC in providing essential ecosystem services and in supporting global efforts to address environmental degradation and climate change (Worl...
58% of greenhouse gas emissions in Latin America and the Caribbean originate from land use, land-use change, and the forestry sector, highlighting the significant weight of these activities in the region’s climate dynamics and the urgent need to strengthen mitigation efforts (World Resources Institute, 2024).
500 hectares were restored in andean areas of Peru, reflecting the progress made in the recovery of high-Andean ecosystems and the implementation of sustainable management practices documented across multiple restoration experiences (SERFOR, 2018).
1,250 hectares are under management or recovery processes in Amazonian ecosystems of Peru, integrating ecological restoration actions and sustainable forest management practices documented across various experiences in the country (SERFOR, 2018).
3,000 hectares were rehabilitated through agroforestry systems in various regions of Peru, combining forest species and crops to restore degraded soils and strengthen the livelihoods of local communities, according to documented experiences (SERFOR, 2018).
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).
92% increase in coffee yield per hectare among producers benefiting from the AGROIDEAS program (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
