Data or statistical facts on the situation and perspectives of agri-food systems and the impact of policies
The study compares three sowing methods (furrows, continuous seeding, and broadcasting) of the Cuba OM-22 hybrid grass in the dry tropics of Peru, evaluating biomass, initial establishment, survival, and forage nutritional composition. The results show significant differences in yield and nutritional quality depending on the method applied, providing useful evidence for improving forage practices ...
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.
Up to 70% of agricultural productivity growth in Latin America and the Caribbean is reduced when environmental costs are taken into account. The increase in production has been driven mainly by the intensive use of inputs rather than by technological or managerial improvements, highlighting the need for policies that integrate sustainability and innovation.

The research analyzes ancestral practices of using natural fertilizers and biocides in Aymara agriculture in Puno, Peru. Through an ethnographic approach, it documents how peasant families use organic resources (such as plants, minerals, and human urine) to fertilize soils and control pests, thus preserving agricultural sustainability and traditional wisdom.
State support for the Peruvian agricultural sector (2019–2022) is analyzed using the OECD methodology (PSE and GSSE), quantifying subsidies, general services, and competitiveness programs, and linking them to the sector's GHG emissions. It assesses its consistency with the NDCs and the National Agricultural Policy 2021–2030, highlighting the need to reorient incentives towards climate-smart an...
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.
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).
The study examines how droughts, floods, and temperature shifts impact agriculture in Peru and Ecuador. It reviews adaptation strategies such as climate-resilient crops, irrigation innovations, and government support. Findings show improved resilience, but highlight the need for more sustainable practices and stronger climate policies (Fernandez & Morales, 2025).
Survey of 130 goat producers in Piura (Marcavelica, Lancones, La Brea) found 56.9 % recognized climate change, perceiving impacts on temperature (69.9 %), rainfall (100 %), soil productivity (79.2 %), and water availability (50 %). Four adaptation capacity clusters emerged: excellent (6 %), good (23 %), fair (75 %), and poor (25 %) (Temoche et al., 2024).
The study examines how agroecology supports food security and climate change mitigation in Peru. It highlights its role in strengthening family farming, conserving biodiversity, and reducing emissions (Glave & Escobedo, 2022).
