This book was released on 2018-03-24 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mexico's Production of Horticultural Products for Export In the Bajio strawberries have been and will continue to be the most important horticultural crop grown and processed although growers, as well as processors, are taking more and more interest in diversifying production. The hub of Mexico's canning industry, this area is becoming an important center for freezing vegetables for export. Shipments of fresh vegetables from this area can also be expected to increase. Changes in the horticultural industry on the West Coast have not been so pronounced as those in the Bajio. However, the significance of this vegetable and melon-producing area has not diminished, and the value of its exports exceeds that of exports from any other area. Growing Operations are concentrated primarily in the State of Sinaloa although they extend somewhat into neighboring Sonora. Production - especially of tomatoes - in the Culiacan Valley continues to expand, not so much because of increasing acreage as from bigger yields. Farmers in Apatzingan, south of the Bajio, produce primarily cantaloupes, watermelons, onions, and cucumbers. The latter are produced chiefly for pickling, while the melons and onions are shipped fresh. In the future this area is expected to decline in importance as an exporter of horticultural products. Yucatan, although not an important exporting area at the present time, has attracted attention as a potential one. Tomatoes, cucumbers, and eggplant, among other vegetables, are being gown successfully, but lack of financing and efficient transportation keeps the industry from taking any great strides.

This book was released on 2018-01-08 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Foreign Competition in Horticultural Products The past decade has witnessed a remarkable expansion in the production and export of fresh and processed fruits and vegetables by a number of foreign countries. Three of the most prominent participants in this growth have been the Republic of China (taiwan), Mexico, and South Africa. The development and expansion of foreign fruit and vegetable production is continuing for many reasons. Certainly among the most important are the comparatively high per acre monetary returns realized from these commodities, greater demand in world markets as a result of rising incomes, and large labor supplies available at low wages.

Download or read book Survey of Mexican Winter Vegetable Production Classic Reprint written by Alvis Clinton Cook and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-14 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Survey of Mexican Winter Vegetable Production Production costs are low despite the fact that such hazards as frosts, insects, and plant diseases tend to keep the average yields per acre of exportable quality at low levels and that market prices in the United States and Canada are so low at times that a portion of the crop is abandoned. As for marketing costs from harvest to delivery in a United States terminal market, they are high and offset the low production costs. Growers and shippers usually stop shipping for export when United States and Canadian prices will not return marketing costs. However, losses are usually encountered before a grower will disband his harvesting and packing crews. In view of the high marketing costs, these losses can be extensive when there is a sharp break in prices. In prior years, practically all of the vegetables in these areas were grown for export to the United States and Canada. The demand in Mexican markets, however, has increased sharply in the last few years. A large portion of the lower quality vegetables not suitable for export is now sold there. This will tend to increase returns per acre and lower the production, harvest, and grading costs, which have previously been borne by the export shipments. Processing outlets are available on the West Coast, but are un profitable on the crops grown for airport.

Download or read book World Horticultural Trade and U S Export Opportunities written by U. S. Foreign Agricultural Service and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-11-24 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from World Horticultural Trade and U. S. Export Opportunities: September 2001 Mexican asparagus production for marketing year (my) 2001 is forecast at tons, up 9 percent fiom the revised volume in 2000. The increase in volume is attributed mainly to new plants reaching maturity, higher yields, and producers converting to more efficient irrigation systems. Mexico's primary asparagus crop is harvested in Baj a California and Sonora from late December through early April. A smaller crop is harvested from late June through September in the Bajio region of Guanajuato. Green asparagus remains the predominant variety grown in Mexico. In MY 2001, fresh asparagus exports from Mexico are estimated at tons, up 12 percent from the revised level in the previous year. In 2000, nearly all of Mexico's asparagus production was exported to the United States, with most of the rest going to the United Kingdom. Mexico's asparagus exports to the United States peak from the last week of December to January 31, when u.s. Supplies are low and prices are higher. But, with increasing entrance of Peruvian asparagus into the United States during this time, market prices have declined. In the past, most of Peru's asparagus output during this period was used for processing, but recently it has been going into the fresh market. Production of asparagus in Peru in MY 2001 is estimated at tons, up 7 percent from the revised volume in the previous season. Reduced international demand and lower wholesale prices were the primary reasons for this season's revision. According to the u.s. Agricultural Attache's office in Lima, Peruvian asparagus producers are concerned with limited international demand contrasting with increasing supply, with the consequent price fall. Peru is one of the few countries where high quality asparagus is produced year round, due to warm and favorable weather, because asparagus plants do not enter a dormant stage. Peru produces asparagus for two different markets; green asparagus for the United States, and white asparagus for the European market. Green asparagus, accounting for about 35 percent of total output, is packed and exported in 5 kilogram boxes, while white asparagus is processed and exported in cans or jars.
