Abstract

Thanks to the enormous publicity and diffusion of the AIQ, carried out at global level led by the governments of Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador, Argentina and France (Group of countries of the International Committee of the AIQ), the world has known quinoa, as a food of high nutritional value and with nutritional and medicinal properties that could contribute to improve food security in developing countries, promoting its cultivation that is highly adaptable to most of the climatic conditions of the orb. This generated a high demand for the product and, consequently, increased the prices of quinoa, generating temporary profits for the producers.
