"Mexico Agribusiness Report Q4 2015" is now available at Fast Market Research

While we expect solid growth for the Mexican agricultural sector out to the end of our forecast period in 2019, growth will be weaker than in previous years. Consumer demand growth will slow, particularly in key areas such as sugar and corn, where per capita consumption is already high. Competitiveness is also an issue, particularly in the grains, livestock and sugar sector.

Key Forecasts

Corn production growth 201 3 /1 4 to 2018/19: 9.3 % to 25.0mn tonnes. There is potential for Mexico to significantly increase its grains production over the coming years, though growth will be restricted as we believe the area dedicated to corn is unlikely to grow considerably, and use of genetically modified seeds remains limited.

Sugar consumption growth to 2019: 11.3 % to 4.8mn tonnes. Sugar consumption growth will slow over the long term due to high base effects and increasing health consciousness in the country in the wake of high obesity rates. The one peso tax added to soft drinks prices in January 2014 is one of the first steps towards this.

Coffee production growth to 2013/14 to 2018/19: 14.5 % to 4.4mn bags. Agricultural techniques have improved in recent years and local and national government programmes are helping to improve infrastructure and education, which are likely to help boost production. However, growth will be largely due to base effects.

2015 real GDP growth: 2 . 8 % (up from 2.1% in 2014).

Consumer price index (average): 3. 6 % in 2015 (down from 4.0% in 2014).
