Climate change, agriculture, and adaptation options for Peru
While agriculture represents only 7 percent of total GDP (World Bank 2014) for Peru, it is not an insignificant economic sector.
Using a variety of inputs, IFPRI's Spatial Production Allocation Model (SPAM) uses a cross-entropy approach to make plausible estimates of crop distribution within disaggregated units.

Many developing countries seem likely to see a substantial downturn in economic growth over the 2015–2030 implementation period of the SDGs, compared with the recent years of strong growth.
This food policy report is a response to growing concerns about the impacts of climate change on Latin American economies, agriculture, and people.
IFPRI IMPACT Webtool
The International Model for Policy Analysis of Agricultural Commodities and Trade (IMPACT) web tool is a fully interactive online tool designed to highlight and make public the results of simulations performed with the IMPACT model and carried out
IFPRI's flagship report examines the major food policy issues, developments, and decisions of 2012.
The IMPACT model is designed to examine alternative futures for global food supply, demand, trade, prices, and food security.
