The agricultural sector as an alternative to illegal mining in Peru

Pages : 44
Book Description
Gold mining is the main economic activity in Madre de Dios, Peru. Despite efforts, the state has not yet managed to identify a formalization process achievable for small operators. In addition, many small-scale miners are driven by poverty and need income to provide for their basic needs. Because participation in small-scale mining is largely driven by poverty, it is likely that, in the longer term, much artisanal mining activity will disappear naturally if, through economic development, more attractive work options become available. This paper reviews the importance of illegal mining in Madre de Dios and the potential for development of the agriculture sector. It also analyzes three different policy scenarios: (1) government spending to rectify the environmental damage in the region caused by illegal mining, (2) development of the agricultural sector in the region, and (3) a final scenario with both environmental restoration and agricultural development. Results show that additional government spending in Madre de Dios does not significantly affect the rest of the country and that investment in agriculture can achieve structural change in the gross domestic product of Madre de Dios. Development of the agricultural sector also slightly increases household incomes in Madre de Dios.

Book Description
Since the agricultural sector is a crucial factor in the development of the Peruvian economy, the country has recently established five national priority programs in coordination with several international agricultural research centers (IARCs) to enhance crop production and farm output. These five programs concentrate on crops such as potatoes, maize, rice, grain and grain legumes. The report also discusses each of the five products in relation to international cooperation, indicators of crop production, improved varieties and improved cultivation techniques, commercial varieties and price policies. In addition to discussing the crop programs, the report relates highlights of the Peruvian farm sector, examines the National Agricultural Research System (NARS), and impact of the IARCs on NARS and farm production itself.
