The US market has surpassed expectations for Peruvian agro-exporters this year. Adam Formica of Sensonomic highlights the potential for cherries to become a significant agricultural product for Peru, despite challenges with winter temperatures.

This meant 57% of world exports, of which 91% went to China. “A key challenge for cherry development on the coast of Peru is that winter temperatures do not drop below 7 to 8 degrees Celsius. There are not enough cold hours for bud opening. However, advances in technology, driven by foreign investments, could help overcome this barrier,” he explained. Along these lines, he considered that blueberries are a good case study, since from Morocco to Peru, developments in genetics have allowed the development of blue berry production in desert regions. “New varieties like Eureka Sunrise, Sekoya Pop, and ...
