Altiplano & Highland Agriculture — Agricultura del Altiplano y las Tierras Altas
Bolivia's Altiplano, at elevations of 3,600-4,100 meters, presents unique challenges for alfalfa cultivation. However, the crop has become increasingly vital for the highland dairy sector around Oruro and La Paz. Kohenoor's cold-tolerant varieties like Sardi (FD 8-9) demonstrate excellent establishment at altitude, withstanding frost conditions while delivering high-protein forage. The Cochabamba Valley, at a more moderate 2,500 meters, offers ideal alfalfa growing conditions with its temperate climate and fertile soils, supporting Bolivia's growing dairy industry.
Cochabamba Valley: Bolivia's Dairy Hub — Valle de Cochabamba: Centro Lechero de Bolivia
The Cochabamba Valley is Bolivia's most productive agricultural region, where alfalfa serves as the primary forage crop for the expanding dairy sector. Small and medium dairy farms in this valley depend on high-quality alfalfa to improve milk production yields. Bolivia's national dairy program aims to increase domestic milk production, creating strong demand for improved forage varieties. Kohenoor's KN92 variety delivers 6-8 cuts per year at Cochabamba's elevation, with protein levels exceeding 19%.
Import Routes & Certification — Rutas de Importacion y Certificacion
As a landlocked nation, Bolivia relies on transit routes through neighboring countries for seed imports. Kohenoor ships via the Port of Arica (Chile) under bilateral transit agreements, ensuring efficient overland delivery to Cochabamba, La Paz, and Santa Cruz. All shipments are 100% dodder-free (libre de cuscuta) with complete phytosanitary documentation meeting SENASAG requirements. Seeds ship under HS Code 120921 with certificates of origin and independent lab analysis reports.
