Data or statistical facts on the situation and perspectives of agri-food systems and the impact of policies
51 initiatives correspond to information and communication technologies (ICT) in the report’s IAP mapping (ECLAC, 2025).
9.5% was the share of business services after increasing from 5% (as reported over time) (ECLAC, 2025).
0.006 was the average DID effect on mean NDVI for citrus, indicating productivity improvement.
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.
Smart subsidies combine co-financing and technical assistance. PRODAF’s smart subsidies combined non-reimbursable contributions with technical assistance to foster efficient and environmentally sustainable technology adoption.
262 (cotton) and 190 (citrus) plots were georeferenced to build NDVI series.
21% is the increase in the probability of technology adoption among beneficiaries versus controls, estimated via IPW.
