Water resources and irrigation infrastructure in Peru vary throughout the country. The coastal region, an arid but fertile land, has about two-thirds of Peru’s irrigation infrastructure due to private and public investment aimed at increasing agricultural exports. The Highlands and Amazon regions, with abundant water resources but rudimentary irrigation systems, are home to the majority of Peru's poor, many of whom rely on subsistence or small-scale farming.

  • El riego en el Perú ha sido (y se espera que continúe siendo) un factor determinante en el incremento de la seguridad alimentaria, el crecimiento agrícola y productivo, y el desarrollo humano en las zonas rurales del país. Los recursos hídricos y la infraestructura hidráulica para riego está distribuida de manera desigual por el país, lo que crea realidades muy diferentes. La costa, de tierra fértil pero seca, posee grandes infraestructuras hidráulicas fruto de inversiones destinadas al desarrollo de regadíos para fomentar exportaciones. La sierra y la región Amazónica, con abundantes recursos hídricos pero poca o rudimentaria infraestructura para riego, poseen minifundios con cultivos destinados a mercados locales o subsistencia. Una gran parte de su población es pobre. (es)
