Data or statistical facts on the situation and perspectives of agri-food systems and the impact of policies
From 90% to 64.6% the proportion of world fishery resources at biologically sustainable levels declined between 1974 and 2019, evidencing a significant decline in the sustainability of global fisheries (FAO, 2022).
85% of the world's amphibian, bird and mammal species are found in mountainous regions, even though they constitute only about 25% of the Earth's land surface (FAO, 2022).
68 countries had at least one measure to ensure the fair sharing of benefits arising from the use of genetic resources and traditional knowledge, according to the Nagoya Protocol, by the end of 2021 (FAO, 2022).
Less than $15 (constant 2011 PPP) per day worked is the maximum labor productivity of small-scale food producers in all low- and middle-income countries with available data. (FAO, 2022)
65% of the country's surface area is on hillsides, that is, with a slope greater than 15%, where most small producers cultivate (Martín Manzano, 2012).
Peru's Andean livestock system is highly heterogeneous structurally, with a predominance of small producers, low productivity and limited access to technical services, which requires differentiated policies by type of producer (Quispe et al., 2022).
Of the 6,000 plant species humans have eaten over time, the world now mostly eats nine, of which just three—rice, wheat and maize—provide 50% of all calories.
72 million rural inhabitants in 26 countries in the region lack connectivity with minimum quality standards.
56.6% of the inhabitants of rural areas do not have access to significant connectivity, which is equivalent to 36.2 million people in rural áreas (IICA, et al. 2022).
45% of current global emissions should be reduced to reach 1.5°C of global warming (UNEP, 2022).
