CRUZ-LOPEZ, Diego Francisco; CAAMAL-CAUICH, Ignacio; PAT-FERNANDEZ, Verna Gricel y REZA SALGADO, Juventino. Competitiveness of Mexico’s Hass avocado exports in the world market. Rev. Mex. Cienc. Agríc [online]. 2022, vol.13, n.2, pp.355-362. Epub 01-Ago-2022. ISSN 2007-0934. https://doi.org/10.29312/remexca.v13i2.2885.
At the international level, the national production of avocado in Mexico during the season from July 2019 to June 2020 reached 2.4 million tonnes, 6% more compared to the 2018 to 2019 cycle of the same period, regarding exports, they were close to 860 thousand tonnes, thus contributing more than 45% of the world market of exports. Michoacán is the main avocado-producing state in Mexico, with approximately 26 740 registered producers, contributing 74% of the national production (2.4 million tonnes), followed by the states of Jalisco and Mexico with 12 and 4%, respectively. Recent export estimates place avocado in third place, only behind tomatoes and beer. The fundamental purpose is to analyze the competitiveness of Mexico’s avocado during the period from 1995 to 2020 in the world market, derived from the surplus in production and exports. The materials and methods used are based on the figures of production, exports and imports of avocado consulted in official sources, and through the calculation of trade competitiveness indicators, specifically the indicators of relative trade balance, tradability indicator, trade dependence coefficient and the degree of export openness. The results obtained reflect that avocado production in Mexico is competitive at the international level.
