Regenerative Agriculture in Bolivian quinoa farming
Project Started: 2022.

The once-small, subsistence-based quinoa plots expanded to larger, commercial operations, adopting modern machinery and synthetic pesticides. While it initially boosted the livelihoods of over 40,000 farmers, the change led to concerning soil degradation, reducing yields, and threatening Bolivia’s position in the global quinoa market.
