This investigation article describes the level and trend of competitiveness of honey from Mexico in comparison with the main trading countries, 2005- 2020. The objective set out in this study is to demonstrate the level of participation in the honey export market, the capacity to generate excess supply, the degree of international specialization and the way in which this product is inserted into the market. The methodology is developed by applying four of the most used indicators in research on competitiveness in agro-chains, using data on export, import and production volumes, for 21 countries. Among the main conclusions, Mexico stands out as a net exporter, with an excess supply and a high level of specialization, but in terms of positioning and efficiency, which measures market insertion, qualifies it as lost opportunities. As a final product, a ranking was generated that includes all the indices and countries studied, positioning it in the second position worldwide, which qualifies it as one of the most competitive countries in this product.

The Automotive Sector is one of the most important worldwide, in recent years it has had an important relevance for its high contribution in the economic development of Mexico, it is also the first generator of foreign exchange, it is an important generator of direct jobs, and it is the main recipient of foreign direct investment. It is observed that Mexico is among the most prominent countries in the production and export of automobiles; therefore it becomes the seventh largest producer and fourth largest exporter of automobiles worldwide. The main objective was to find the positive relationship between the variables infrastructure, investment, exchange rate and human capital with exports of the automotive sector in Mexico for the period 1993-2017. The causality study is also carried out by applying the Granger causality test (1969), in order to study whether there is a causal relationship between the variables. As a result of the causality tests, it was found that there is a two-way causality relationship of the exchange rate towards exports of the automotive sector. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The objective of this research is to determine the main factors that influence strategic planning and its socioeconomic development in the metropolitan area of Moroleón and Uriangato, Guanajuato, Mexico. To this end, the corresponding literature was investigated, in relation to Regional Development (DR) and other related issues, and variables were obtained that were the ones that marked the route to be followed; It is observed that the territorial strategic planning begins to operate in the area and that the municipal authorities still have to work a lot on this subject, which is fundamental in these times. Subsequently, with the Method for Employing Sampling Thecniques, the study area was delimited, in which it was applied in all sectors of the population, the results were analyzed with the statistical program Statitistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS), to apply Statistical tools that led the investigation to obtain results. It is concluded that public policies (PP) is the independent variable that most influences the dependent variable, so the recommendation is to improve this governmental aspect of the municipality and implement territorial strategic plans that improve the urban development of both municipalities.

The objective is to determine the level of relevance and performance of environmental, economic and social variables, and their influence on corporate social responsibility (CSR) perceived by broccoli agro-exporters in the state of Guanajuato. It is an empirical research that uses the quantitative and qualitative method with correlational scope, using a questionnaire with 102 items to measure the variables. The results show that environmental, economic and social variables are highly relevant and present a high performance, although it is evident that there is only a significant and positive association between CSR and the environmental variable. The main limitation was the low response of companies to solve the instrument of inquiry. The study is relevant for the agro-export sector since its originality constitutes the first effort in characterizing CSR from this perspective. The findings of the gap between the performance and relevance of the variables are highlighted. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article presents the result of a research carried out to the Exporting Companies of the Agricultural Sector in the state of Michoacán. The general objective is to determine the interrelationships between the critical variables that define the International Competitiveness of the companies that export agricultural products to the market of the United States of America, located in the state of Michoacán. A theoretical review was carried out, identifying the variables that impact the agricultural sector and, based on the theory of competitiveness, the following variables -quality, price, training, technology and distribution channels - were identified and a structured classification of indicators was developed, which was later integrated into a questionnaire composed of 38 items and applied to the identified exporting companies in the sector. Once the information was processed, different statistical techniques were used, and the results obtained allowed to identify a Structural Model that describes how these variables are interrelated, based on the Partial Least Square (PLS) modeling Statistical Modeling Technique and the model Bootstrapping. After applying the questionnaire to the agricultural exporting companies, the data from of each one of the companies surveyed was processed using parametric statistics and the correlation of variances.

This article presents the results of a scientific research on Mexican lemon. Its overall objective is to make a description of the behavior of lemon exports for the four major exporting countries, which include Mexico, Argentina, Spain and Turkey during the period from 2000 to 2012.After a theoretical review, the main economic indicators of major lemon exporting countries were identified; after that, it was established the general hypothesis of this research which is: Revealed Comparative Advantage of Mexican Lemon grew, compared to Spain, Argentina and Turkey, during the period 2000-2012. Results obtained identified the competitive level of the Mexican Lemon exporting sector compared to the other three countries. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this article we review the most important variables for understanding competitiveness and extracted the theoretical framework factors that determine it for the exporting companies as well as the indexes that measure it. Using a set of variables (quality, price, training, technology and distribution channels) it was developed a structured classification of these factors and indices, and a survey was applied to the directors of twenty exporting companies of the State of Michoacán. From relevant factors and indices found, we developed a model that describes how these variables are interrelated, on the basis of Technical Statistical Modeling Partial Least Squares (PLS). The final results showed that technology variable has the greatest impact on competitiveness indices, which implies that exporting companies should pay special attention to this variable.

The Agricultural Vulnerability (VA) is the result of the measurement of climate variability within a social and sectorial vulnerability context, that has been adding concepts and indicators that enrich and complement the analysis of food security, on the understanding that the availability of prognostic, corresponds not only to the fundamental right of any human being, but to the survival of himself. The methodology for measurement of this variable strictly depends on the scope of research and the data availability of the region and selected agricultural product. The models used to date are three: the Structural Model, Space Model and Agricultural Vulnerability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Agriculture is an important source of income in some regions of Michoacan, Mexico. However, the agricultural economy is threatened by hydro-meteorological events such as extreme events (drought, frost, hail, flood, etc.), the regional climate variability, global climate change and national and international competition. The present article implements an index denominated Economic Vulnerability of the Agricultural Impact (iveia). Simultaneously, an analysis of the quadrants with the two components of the iveia has been made; The economic participation of agriculture in the municipal economy and the vulnerability of agricultural producers. The results show the feasibility for implementing a vulnerability index and a remarkable diversity in the economic vulnerability of the municipal agricultural impact in Michoacán.
