Data or statistical facts on the situation and perspectives of agri-food systems and the impact of policies
0.4% of the 497 productive articulation initiatives (PAI) (same 20 countries; 2023–2025) focus on specialized public infrastructure development (ECLAC, 2025).
33.6 was the external relative labor productivity index for Transport and information in LAC versus the EU (EU=100) in 2023 (ECLAC, 2025).
0.006 was the average DID effect on mean NDVI for citrus, indicating productivity improvement.
Citrus productivity gains arise from systemic changes (e.g., irrigation, GAP) that materialize over time.
Investments were directed towards water points, fodder, fencing, machinery and general infrastructure.
US$ 1,161/ha is the significant productivity increase in the citrus chain (≈37% of ~US$ 3,000/ha average).
45% negative correlation exists between local soybean prices and distance to ports in Mato Grosso, indicating that prices decrease with increasing distance (Garrett et al., 2018).
3 key benefits of green infrastructure in Trinidad and Tobago: regulation of water supply and quality, and moderation of extreme events for agriculture (Govia & Roopnarine, 2024).
5 times increased water production in Trinidad and Tobago, from 50 IMGD in 1965 to 243 IMGD in 2020, while the population only doubled (Govia & Roopnarine, 2024).
0.5% of the GDP of the LAC region would be the average total cost of new technologies for water supply (ECLAC, 2024).
