The following research highlights the importance of agricultural technical assistance in the development of agriculture in the Sierra region of Peru, specifically in the Colca Valley. Different approaches to technical assistance are mentioned, such as training and visits, projects and based on the participation and needs of producers. The importance of taking into account the needs and knowledge of farmers, as well as promoting sustainability and environmental protection, is highlighted. The irrigation system in the Colca Valley is described, which includes different regulated and unregulated systems. The Sierra Subsector Irrigation Program (PSI) is mentioned, which has implemented different components and subcomponents in the valley, such as the modernization and rehabilitation of irrigation systems, the modernization of parcel irrigation and institutional strengthening. Improvements in irrigation infrastructure have been achieved, allowing for more efficient use of water and an increase in irrigated area and crop yields. Technical assistance in irrigated agriculture has also been provided to farmers. The PSI Sierra Program has two types of projects: conglomerates and individual projects. Although it has faced some problems in the execution of the projects, it has managed to improve irrigation efficiency and increase crop yields. It has also provided support in the formalization of water rights and strengthening of water user organizations. This research highlights the importance of agricultural technical assistance and the development of efficient irrigation systems to promote agricultural development in the Colca Valley. The need to take into account the needs and knowledge of farmers, as well as promote sustainability and environmental protection, is emphasized.
