The 1.57% growth in agricultural production in Colombia between 2012 and 2021 is mainly due to the increase in the use of intermediate inputs (0.67%) and primary factors (0.5%), while Total Factor Productivity (TFP) contributed 0.4% (OECD, 2024).

Argentina, Brasil, Chile, Paraguay, Uruguay y Bolivia, suma aproximadamente 680 millones de hectáreas dedicadas a la ganadería, 3,3 millones de tenedores de ganado bovino (de los cuales entre el 70% y el 80% son productores familiares) y 327 millones de cabezas de ganado bovino. El Cono Sur más Bolivia representan el 26,8% de la producción y el 40,5% de las exportaciones mundiales de carne vacuna. El subsector ganadero vacuno de carne y leche representa entre el 21% y el 25% del valor bruto del sector agropecuario en América Latina.
