In Bolivia, efforts to support the dairy sector have transitioned from administrative preparation to direct regional intervention. Initially, the National Institute of Statistics (INE) partnered with dairy producers in Cochabamba to coordinate the 2026 Agricultural Census, aiming to improve data collection and engagement with organizations like PROLEC S.A. and the Association of Milk Producers of the Cochabamba Valley.

Subsequently, authorities in Vallegrande, Santa Cruz, began implementing support measures through PRO-BOLIVIA. This includes socializing the ‘Mi Bolivia Lechera’ bill and the ‘Dairy Sector Emergency Support Program.’ Following farm inspections, officials identified requirements for improved financing, infrastructure, and technical supplies to enhance sector competitiveness.
