Los alpaqueros son el primer eslabón de la millonaria industria de fibra de alpaca en Perú, pese a ello, solo ganan $20 anuales por cada uno de sus animales. Este reportaje de grantees 🔎Elizabeth Salazar & Alessandro Cinque para OjoPúblico analiza su situación. pulitzercenter.org/stories/millio…

#ElNegocioDeLaAlpaca🦙 Cada alpaca solo ofrece 2,3 kilos de fibra al año para los criadores. A la fecha, cada kilo cotiza en USD 8,7 (S/31,3) en el mercado peruano. ✍🏼🔎Elizabeth Salazar 📷Alessandro Cinque 👉 bit.ly/3KpStYx
