Earlier Report Observations

The market for fresh carrots and turnips in Bolivia showed consistent expansion from 2018 to 2023. Starting at a volume of 68 459 t in 2018, it grew to 70 291 t by 2020. This early period saw increased supply from a surge in imports of these vegetables from China, whose value had risen 371% over the preceding decade, adding to domestic availability.

A significant jump occurred in 2021, with market volume rising 20% to 84 233 t. Growth continued through 2022 and 2023, reaching 96 769 t. This later phase was supported by policy measures, including Supreme Decree No. 4657 in January 2022, which authorized funding for climate resilience programs for rural families, improving conditions for small carrot producers. Furthermore, the ongoing application of Law No. 830 on agricultural health and food safety, enacted in 2016, continued to shape production standards. Market conditions were also influenced by persistent issues with smuggling affecting local supply and prices.
