Only seedbed eradication was conducted in Peru until 1996. About 254,000 square meters of seedbeds were eradicated in 1995. Beginning in 1997, Peru began manual eradication of recently abandoned coca fields, in addition to eradication of coca within selected parks. Coca is eradicated manually when discovered, but only minor amounts are grown. Minor amounts of coca are grown and eradicated in the Perija area between Colombia and Venezuela.
Brazil currently has no eradication program in place.
