Avocados are rich in vitamins and minerals, contain a lot of fiber and, not surprisingly, enjoy increasing popularity among European consumers.
What is still less known are the catastrophic environmental impact and the violations of the human right to water caused by the expansion of avocado production in fragile eco-systems. In order to produce 2, 5 avocados an average of 1000 liter of water is needed. Production is mainly concentrated in the hands of a couple of big enterprises while small farmers are pushed out of the markets and lose their livelihoods.
The situation is especially grave in countries where the right to water is not sufficiently protected by constitution or law. One of those countries is Chile, the second most important global producer of avocados after Mexico, which has almost completely privatized water. The current Chilean constitution and the water law (Código de Agua) have been dictated under military dictatorship.
Although water supposedly is a public good under state administration, the state has voluntarily given away its rights. The public institutions in charge of water governance are both weak and highly fragmented. This has led to the development of a water market where individuals can trade water according to the laws of supply and demand. Water in Chile is no longer a basic right but a commodity.
The sanitation sector is in the hands of foreign enterprises, and water rights increasingly concentrated in a few powerful enterprises in the mining, timber and agricultural business. Agrobusiness, including the booming avocado sector concentrates about 80% of the drinking water. Plantations are mainly situated in regions with fragile ecosystems.
Avokado är så bäst, tyvärr så dyrt.
Äter den på alla sätt.
Tänkte odla avokado, men sedan läste jag att det tar 15 år att få någon frukt. Fuck that shit.
