For September 2026, INTA forecasts above-normal precipitation continuing across most of Patagonia, with the exception of southern Santa Cruz and Tierra del Fuego (where normal-to-below-normal levels are expected), along with a higher probability of below-normal temperatures across most of the region.
INTA's NDVI monitoring (August 2026) recorded a significant increase in rangeland areas with below-average productivity, relative to the 2011-2026 historical baseline, across central Neuquen, north-central Rio Negro, south-central and southwestern Chubut, and the entire central area of Santa Cruz; the index remained low in Comarca Andina and in Chubut's Gaiman and F.

Survey of 130 goat producers in Piura (Marcavelica, Lancones, La Brea) found 56.9 % recognized climate change, perceiving impacts on temperature (69.9 %), rainfall (100 %), soil productivity (79.2 %), and water availability (50 %). Four adaptation capacity clusters emerged: excellent (6 %), good (23 %), fair (75 %), and poor (25 %) (Temoche et al., 2024).
