Data or statistical facts on the situation and perspectives of agri-food systems and the impact of policies
The study analyzes advances and trends in the use of artisanal biopreparations in Latin American agriculture, made with natural ingredients and native microorganisms as an alternative to conventional agrochemicals. Through a bibliometric analysis, it identifies the leading countries in research (Brazil, Cuba, Colombia, and Mexico), the main types of biopreparations, such as Bokashi, and the crops ...
60% of the total soybean area in Mato Grosso was under double cropping system by 2013, increasing from 10% in 2001 (Garrett et al.,2018).
The 1.4% annual growth in agricultural productivity in the OECD between 1991 and 2000 was reduced to 0.85% between 2011 and 2021 (OECD, 2024).
2.3% was the annual growth of Argentina's agricultural production between 2012 and 2021, driven mainly by an increase in intermediate inputs (OECD, 2024).
The 2.6% annual growth in Brazil's agricultural production (2012-2021) exceeded the world average, driven by a 1.49% increase in intermediate inputs and a 1.42% increase in productivity (OECD, 2024).
1.6% growth in Canada's agricultural production between 2012 and 2021, below the world average of 1.9%, was explained by increased intermediate inputs and higher productivity, despite the reduction in primary factors (OECD, 2024).
The 2.3% growth in Total Factor Productivity (TFP) in Chile between 2012 and 2021, more than double the global average (1%), was the main driver of agricultural growth, which was 1.6%, slightly below the global average of 1.9% (OECD, 2024).
The 1.57% growth in agricultural production in Colombia between 2012 and 2021 is mainly due to the increase in the use of intermediate inputs (0.67%) and primary factors (0.5%), while Total Factor Productivity (TFP) contributed 0.4% (OECD, 2024).
The 1.6% annual decline in Costa Rica's Total Factor Productivity (TFP) between 2012 and 2021 contributed to agricultural output growth of only 0.6% per year, driven by increased use of primary factors and, to a lesser extent, variable inputs (OECD, 2024).
