The National Agrarian Health Service (Senasa) in Peru is working to address phytosanitary issues in the country's potato crops, which cover around 330,000 hectares and face pest challenges like the rancha, Andean weevil complex, Andean moth complex, and quarantine pests such as Tecia solanivora and zebra chips. Senasa provides training to producers on integrated pest management and good agricultural practices, with over 11,000 producers receiving training and 12,452 producers strengthening their knowledge in the past six months. The service also monitors the quality of seed potato, a crucial factor in boosting production yield, and is responsible for seed certification as the seed authority. This effort supports Peru's position as the leading potato producer in Latin America, with access to 14 international markets.
