The study assessed how precision technologies—such as sensors, GIS, and drones—relate to agricultural input management in the San Martín region of Peru. Based on surveys of 120 producers, it found that productivity and sustainability positively influence efficient input management, while costs, limited infrastructure, and resistance to change are the main barriers to their adoption

The study assesses the impact of converting Amazonian forests to agricultural land in the Peruvian Amazon, analyzing how this transition affects soil organic carbon, total nitrogen, and available potassium. The results show a significant decrease in these essential components, reaching critical levels that compromise fertility, agricultural productivity, and ecological sustainability (Solórzano et al., 2025).

This study evaluates the spatial distribution of cadmium (Cd) in soils cultivated with avocado (Persea americana) in different regions of Peru, identifying factors that influence its concentration, such as texture, pH, organic matter, and agricultural practices. It was determined that several areas have elevated levels of Cd, which represents a risk to food safety and exports, especially given the European Union's international standards (Solórzano et al., 2025).

The study examines how droughts, floods, and temperature shifts impact agriculture in Peru and Ecuador. It reviews adaptation strategies such as climate-resilient crops, irrigation innovations, and government support. Findings show improved resilience, but highlight the need for more sustainable practices and stronger climate policies (Fernandez & Morales, 2025).

In Peru’s Upper Huallaga basin, 73 structured farmer interviews were integrated with local station and ERA-5 data. A temperature rise of +0.2 °C per decade matched farmers’ perceptions. Increased crop water deficit and surplus volumes suggest more intense sub-daily convective rainfall, helping explain perceived changes in precipitation and wind (Serrano et al., 2025).

The study shows that the 'Ataulfo' mango from Chiapas increases its sweetness and loses firmness as it ripens, which directly influences its post-harvest quality and export potential (Ortiz-Hernández, M. et al.,2012).
