The State designs and implements the necessary public policies in order to support the primary sector. PROCAMPO has emerged as the answer to the situation in rural areas (1993), which can be surmised as an environment of poverty, loss of self-sufficiency, migration, fall in productivity and new rurality. This context has an important influence on the creation of public policy meant to support agricultural production. PROCAMPO was the Mexican agricultural policy during 20 years of operation; it was the main tool for agricultural policy given that it was the program that received the largest budget.
