Abstract
PANTOJA ZAVALA, Gerardo Macario and FLORES VICHI, Felipe. The citrus sector of Nuevo León: characterization of the agri-food system as a platform for integration of the producer with agro-industry. Región y sociedad [online]. 2018, vol.30, n.71. ISSN 2448-4849. https://doi.org/10.22198/rys.2018.71.a385.
The aim of the study is to identify the producers and marketers in Nuevo Leon’s citrus system in order to integrate them into the agro-industrial sector on the basis of the processes of the methodological approach to the localized agri-food systems. Using the agro-industrial districts theory and through a prior analysis of the region from a historical, geographical, productive perspective and taking into consideration the relationship among actors, according to the productive scheme, it will be possible to measure the interconnection among these by virtue of their attributes and differences. This will create competitive conditions in the citrus sector and generate business units based on equity and the appropriate management of natural resources destined to future generations. Studies on regional agriculture contribute to food security, job stability and territorial and environmental development, according to the sustainable development premise.
