Avocados are nutrient-rich fruits native to the Americas, first domesticated in Mesoamerica over 5,000 years ago. They are now cultivated in tropical and Mediterranean climates worldwide, with Mexico leading global production as of 2020.
The fruit is botanically a large berry containing a single seed, with varieties exhibiting green, brown, purplish, or black skin, and shapes ranging from pear-shaped to spherical. Avocados are renowned for their smooth, buttery, golden-green flesh when ripe, and their high nutrient density and fat content make them a valuable addition to various cuisines, often enhancing vegetarian diets.
In regions like Chile, Mexico, and California, avocado farming’s water demands can strain local resources. Additionally, production has been linked to deforestation and human rights concerns, particularly in Mexico, where organized crime has influenced the industry. Climate change poses further challenges, potentially altering suitable growing zones and exacerbating issues like heatwaves and droughts.
