Trends in agricultural production in the subregions of Antioquia, Colombia (2006–2022) : an analysis to inform public policy

This study analyzes the evolution of crop production in Antioquia from 2006 to 2022, revealing a shift toward agroindustrial models geared for export, marked by an increase in crops such as avocado, cacao, and oil palm tree, and a significant decline in staple foods like maize and beans. This trend reflects a productive reconfiguration that threatens regional food security and agro-biodiversity. Through time series and correlation analysis, patterns of crop substitution are identified. These findings deepen the understanding of the influence of national and international trade-oriented policies and highlight the urgent need to strengthen sustainable agricultural models aimed at guaranteeing the human right to adequate food.
