Data or statistical facts on the situation and perspectives of agri-food systems and the impact of policies
29% of farmers cited political or regulatory decisions as one of their top 3 challenges, double the amount compared to last year (Bayer AG, 2024).
This study examined the relationship between air and sea surface temperatures, Peruvian organic agro-exports (2000–2022), and food security. It found that higher organic agro-exports reduce undernourishment globally and enhance access to healthy diets despite climate change (Coayla & Bedon, 2024).
19% is the calculation for the reduction in global income over the next 26 years due to climate impacts (Kotz, et al., 2024).
1 in 5 students, aged 15-16 years, reported having stopped eating at least once a week (IDB, 2024).
The study conducts a systematic review of the methods applied in prospective studies for strategic planning of agri-food chains in Latin America and the Caribbean between 2010 and 2021. It examines the most widely used methodologies (such as MACTOR, MICMAC, and Delphi), their contributions to decision-making, and the challenges that remain in institutionalizing regional foresight.

Current frameworks used to guide nutrition interventions are designed from a health sector paradigm, leaving agricultural aspects not sufficiently leveraged (Duncan et al., 2022).
12 key components and 35 sub-components represent the identified elements of the agri-food sector that can serve as intervention points to improve nutritional outcomes (Duncan et al., 2022).
18 peer-reviewed articles were identified as conceptual frameworks for food systems and nutrition, evidencing the need for multisectoral approaches that include agriculture, health, education, water, sanitation and social protection (Duncan et al., 2022).
9 Voluntary Sustainability Standards were analyzed operating in agricultural commodities: Fairtrade International, Rainforest Alliance, Organic, RSPO, ISCC, RTRS, ProTerra, FSC and PEFC (Larrea et al., 2021).
365% was the annual average of new registrations of pesticide products in Brazil between 2016 and 2020, compared to 121 annual registrations between 2010 and 2015 (Sanchez et al., 2021).
