Specific to each region, Coquimbo and North Valparaiso saw the largest declines in acreage, 24 per cent and 20 per cent, respectively, mainly due to a 50 per cent
drop in production in Cabildo, La Ligua and Petorca due to climate change.
Although the share of cultivation in Valparaíso has decreased from 67% to 59% in the last two years, the area under avocado cultivation in O'Higgins District has increased by 21%, with a total increase of 4,403 hectares

Haas is still the main avocado variety produced in Chile, which has been adapted to the environment of the Chilean production area and can always maintain high quality and yield
.
But Haas is susceptible to frost and over-irrigation, so its acreage is limited, often on hillsides and in
well-drained soils.
Other avocado varieties produced in Chile are Edranol, Negra de la Cruz, Fuerte and Bacon
