The global spending gap in food systems is 328 billion USD annually (OECD, 2024).
In 2021, 31.9% of women worldwide were experiencing moderate or severe food insecurity, compared to 27.6% of men (FAO, 2024).
27.6% of men worldwide suffered from moderate or severe food insecurity in 2021, a significantly lower proportion than that of women (FAO, 2024).
11 billion tons of food are produced annually on a global scale within the framework of food systems (FAO, 2024).
80% of people who do not have access to improved drinking water live in rural areas (FAO, 2024).

This study evaluates the effect of a liquid biofertilizer made from cocoa husks on the growth and chlorophyll content of sweet pepper plants (Capsicum chinense) in San Martín, Peru. The results show significant increases in height, stem diameter, and chlorophyll content, especially with doses of 1250–3000 mL, demonstrating its potential as a sustainable input to improve the physiological perfor...
This study evaluates the effect of different bio-ferments on the morphology and quality of cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) seedlings under nursery conditions. Treatments were compared based on parameters such as height, stem diameter, number of leaves, and seedling quality. The results show significant improvements in growth when bio-ferments are applied, highlighting their potential as an agroecologic...
This study phenotypically characterizes 74 wild accessions of Myrciaria dubia (camu camu) from the INIA ex situ germplasm bank to identify variability relevant for genetic improvement, conservation, and sustainable use programs. Morphological, physical, and fruit quality characteristics were evaluated, revealing a wide diversity that can be used to select genotypes with higher yield and quality Im...
