How Peru Develops and Implants Their Food Production System

Process of Development of Agriculture

Since agriculture is a big part of Peru's income they have to make sure everything runs smoothly. Many farmers use pesticides to exterminate insects that may be harming the crops like for example white flies. A great way some farmers fertilizer their soil would be with guano. Guano consists of the excrement of sea birds, cave dwelling bats, and pinnipeds and is high in hydrogen, phosphate, and potassium. To water the crops farms most commonly use an irrigation system to make sure all of the crops get enough water. To the left is an example of a typical area used for farming in Peru.
