Abstract

Strawberry production in Mexico to be exported goes back to the fifties. Nowadays the production has expanded from two to six states in Mexico. The strawberry grown in Mexico is appreciated and valued in the international market due to quality achieved in the crop. Nevertheless, the technological lag has a significant negative impact on farming activities. Therefore, it is necessary to incorporate a technological innovation process which allows crops to be grown with efficient yields which lead to achieve competitiveness. Currently, new production processes have been undertaken, which are focused on the characteristic of the crop in order to diversify products according to the environmental conditions and the weather of each growing region. Such situation implies a positive impact on the yields obtained, the quality and the competitiveness achieved.
