1000 personalized technical assistance interventions were carried out by INIA specialists to improve goat management, nutrition, and health practices in rural areas of Peru, strengthening productive capacities and the performance of the caprine production system (INIA, 2025).
68% of Peru’s 2 million goats are concentrated in the northern coast, south-central zone, and Andean region, areas where precipitation ranges from 0–500 mm per year in arid and semi-arid zones, to elevations above 3,000 m a.s.l. with greater water availability, reflecting contrasts in forage supply and productive potential (INIA, 2025).
13,000 goat producers in Peru benefit from the PROCAP Investment Project, which promotes research, technical assistance, and productive strengthening in goat farming (INIA, 2025).
795, 565, 333 and 317 plans were executed in cotton, livestock, dairy and citrus respectively, demonstrating PRODAF's multi-channel focus.
Two provinces and four value chains were prioritized based on technological gaps and economic relevance. These included Chaco (cotton, livestock) and Entre Ríos (citrus, dairy).
2,005 producers implemented plans with technical assistance.
The 166 kg represents the average initial live weight of 6.5-month-old Holstein heifers under tropical conditions in El Salvador (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).
