Data or statistical facts on the situation and perspectives of agri-food systems and the impact of policies
Harvest moisture affects rice milling quality, particularly whole grain yield and appearance. Levels between 20 % and 22 % are recommended to optimize industrial outcomes. (Álvarez-Parra et al., 2020).
The 7.37 kg/day represents the average dry matter intake in heifers fed cowpea hay, being 0.42 kg/day higher than those fed pangola grass hay (Corea et al., 2020).
The 70.3% represents the apparent total tract digestibility of organic matter in cowpea hay diets, being 4.7 percentage points higher than pangola diets (Corea et al., 2020).
The 900 g/day represents the average live weight gain in heifers fed cowpea hay, being 90 g/day higher than those with pangola grass hay (Corea et al., 2020).
The 151 g/kg DM represents the crude protein content in cowpea hay, being 95.5 g/kg DM higher than pangola grass hay (55.5 g/kg DM) (Corea et al., 2020).
The 124 g LWG/kg DM represents the average feed conversion with 360 g/kg CP of RUP, being 10 g LWG/kg DM higher than with 260 g/kg CP of RUP (Corea et al., 2020).
A 60% increase in food production will be required from farmers and ranchers worldwide by 2050 (World Bank, 2020).
760 million hectares is the total agricultural area in LAC: 400 million for family farming and 360 million for large-scale commercial farming (IDB, 2020).
From 1.2 to 1.5 head of cattle per hectare increased the stocking rate in Mato Grosso during the period 2001-2013 (Garrett et al., 2018).
From 0.12 to 0.29 head per hectare increased the cattle slaughter rate per unit of grazing area in Mato Grosso between 2001-2013 (Garrett et al., 2018).
