| description | Intraregional food trade in the LAC region offers untapped opportunities for expansion. Currently, 60 percent of LAC food imports come from extraregional suppliers, despite a high degree of complementarity in the production of food products across LAC countries. Expanding LAC’s intraregional trade could improve access to, availability, and diversity of food, and ensure more stable food supplies in the face of growing risk of shocks, such as economic crises, extreme weather events, conflicts, and epidemics.
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) cordially invite you to the launch of the report: Food Security and Agrifood Trade in Latin America and the Caribbean, La Seguridad Alimentaria y el Comercio Agroalimentario en América Latina y el Caribe.
This publication aims to inform government representatives and other decision-makers who formulate and implement agrifood policies and programs in Latin America and the Caribbean. It should also be useful for private sector actors, including producers, agroindustry, and trade associations, and for researchers interested in agricultural policy and trade analysis. |

La seguridad alimentaria y el comercio agroalimentario en América Latina y el Caribe Esta presentación será en español. Habrá traducción simultánea al inglés. El comercio intrarregional de alimentos en la región de América Latina y el Caribe (ALC) presenta oportunidades de expansión sin explotar. En la actualidad, el 60 por ciento de las importaciones de alimentos de ALC proceden de proveedores extrarregionales, a pesar del alto grado de complementariedad que existe en la producción de productos alimentarios entre los países de ALC. La expansión del comercio intrarregional de ALC podría mejorar el acceso a los alimentos, su disponibilidad y diversidad, además de garantizar un suministro de alimentos más estable ante el creciente riesgo de fenómenos que pueden impactar la región, como crisis económicas, eventos meteorológicos extremos, conflictos y epidemias. La Organización de las Naciones Unidas para la Agricultura y la Alimentación (FAO) y el Instituto Internacional de Investigación sobre Políticas Alimentarias (IFPRI) lo invitan cordialmente a la presentación del informe: La seguridad alimentaria y el comercio agroalimentario en América Latina y el Caribe. Esta publicación pretende poner en conocimiento a representantes gubernamentales y otros responsables de tomar decisiones que formulan e implementan políticas y programas agroalimentarios en América Latina y el Caribe. También debería ser útil para actores del sector privado, incluidos los productores, la agroindustria y las asociaciones comerciales, así como para investigadores interesados analizar la política agrícola y el comercio. 2023-11-28 2023-11-28T20:57:02Z 2023-11-28T20:57:02Z Presentation https://hdl.handle.net/10568/134777 es Open Access application/pdf Tejeda Rodriguez, Agustin and Illescas, Nelson. 2023.
