Data or statistical facts on the situation and perspectives of agri-food systems and the impact of policies
795, 565, 333 and 317 plans were executed in cotton, livestock, dairy and citrus respectively, demonstrating PRODAF's multi-channel focus.
Smart subsidies should be framed within longer-term strategies for systematic and sustainable production improvements, beyond one-off inputs.
The combined strategy of using surveys and satellite images allows for measuring mechanisms (adoption, credit) and returns, offering consistent evidence.
The monthly NDVI signal shows greater variation in annual crops such as cotton and greater stability in perennial crops such as citrus.
Annual NDVI (average and maximum) is used to observe pre- and post-intervention trends for treated and control units. The longitudinal approach captures the "before and after" dynamics of the program.
NDVI-based remote sensing is a valuable, cost-effective proxy for yield to assess temporal dynamics of impacts.
Citrus productivity gains arise from systemic changes (e.g., irrigation, GAP) that materialize over time.
Tax regularization and RENSPA registration enabled banking access by providing formal documentation.
The program defined specific technological menus for cotton, livestock, dairy and citrus, aligned with gaps and good practices.
As a national pilot, PRODAF emphasized rigorous evaluation of productive and economic impacts.
