FOTOGRAFIA PENDIENTE Fair, productive, profitable and sustainable countryside: a fulfilled commitmentBaltazar Hinojosa Ochoa Mexico’s countryside and seas are a source of food and wealth, but also of identity and pride. They manifest the natural beautySecretary of Agriculture, Livestock, Rural Development, of our country, while representing the work of millions of Mexicans who sow, fish and reap their fruits every day. Therefore,Fishing and Food (SAGARPA). from the beginning of his administration, President Peña Nieto established public policies so that the countryside could have a new face and follow a path of greater development, progress and, above all, to expand opportunities for men and women from the rural areas of the country. The agri-food policy undertaken between 2012 and 2018 is an essential factor for the countryside to be an expression of progress and prosperity. In these six years, the Mexican agri-food sector has had significant changes that have led it to consolidate itself as a strategic pillar of the national economy. For the first time in the last four presidential terms, the GDP derived from primary activities registered an average annual growth of 3%, higher than that of the national economy (with an annual rate of 2.5%). The economic dynamism of the agri-food sector and its export boom are the results achieved through a policy of promoting productivity, increasing profitability, strengthening competitiveness and optimizing sustainability. The economic dynamism of the agri-food sector and its export boom are the results achieved through a policy of promoting productivity, increasing profitability, strengthening competitiveness and optimizing sustainability. The emphasis on the shift from subsidies to productive incentives, the technification of irrigation and research and technological innovation have been fundamental for the agri-food sector to be the expression of modernity it currently is. Extension programs and access to technological packages have been essential for the countryside to be an effective productive option and a place of dignified life for rural producers and their families. An agri-food policy based on equity, in order to guarantee that small and self-consumption producers receive more resources per hectare than medium and large ones, has contributed to the generation of more jobs and better incomes in rural areas of the country. At the same time, it has made possible for many young people from farming communities to take root in their places of origin, given the possibilities of development they are presented with. The policy of productive development of the countryside has contributed to Mexico being a leading food producer and exporter. In 2017, there were 30.7 million tonnes more than in 2012, an increase of 12%, while the value of production increased by 333 billion MXN, 46.6% higher than that obtained in 2012. The agri-food exports achieved from 2013 to the first quarter of 2018 amounted to 150.284 billion USD, an increase of 56.4% over the same period of the previous administration, which totaled 96.111. As of 2015, there was a surplus in the agri-food trade balance, a situation that had not been registered for 23 years. Agri-food exports of 32.583 billion USD in 2017, represented one of the most important items in terms of foreign exchange revenue for the country, above the tourism, remittances and oil sectors. The 2012-2018 Food and Agricultural Atlas shows the productive transformation of the Mexican countryside, reflected in increasing volumes of agricultural and fishing goods that supply the diet of the domestic population and are also tasted by diners from more than 160 countries in the world. That is why, as the popular saying goes, if you are what you eat, there is no doubt that the world is becoming more and more Mexican. 7
