This work explores the possibilities of an analysis tool that will help to understand spatial inequalities in sugar cane agribusiness regions in Jalisco, a Mexican state. The analytical model appeals to the diffuse logic theory and its mathematical application of diffuse sets. Through two theoretical bodies that help to explain the spatial inequalities diminution, defined here as the governmental interventionist and non-interventionist. four components were defined which, averaged as a multidimensional index, allow to differentiate these regions in terms of inequality. The index is contrasted with a simple linear regression model in order to consider shortcomings and advantages of it.
