Earlier Report Observations
The market volume for fresh globe artichokes in Chile began the period at 12 271 t in 2018 before entering a phase of fluctuation. A decline to 10 375 t in 2020 coincided with the COVID-19 pandemic's disruption of agricultural supply chains, which affected logistics and distribution. The following year saw a recovery to 11 712 t, supported by improved access to insurance, credit, and technical assistance for farming units following the detailed assessment of the 2021 Agricultural Census.
Production remains concentrated in the central regions of Metropolitan and O'Higgins, leveraging a Mediterranean climate suitable for varieties like Spanish, Madrigal, and Argentine artichokes. Consumer demand is consistently underpinned by the vegetable's nutritional profile, high in fiber and vitamin A, aligning with broader trends toward healthy and fresh foods.
After the 2021 rebound, the market volume contracted again, falling to 9 742 t by 2023. During this later phase, the horticultural sector continued adapting to evolving demands for quality, traceability, and food safety, efforts aimed at reinforcing the competitiveness of Chilean produce in international markets.
