Abstract

The objective of this research was to study the specialization and competitiveness of lemon production in Mexico. The analysis methods were the Location Ratio, the Shift and Share and an analysis of specialization and competitiveness was integrated. The results show a reconfiguration in the productive structure. Nine specialized and competitive states stand out at the national level. The states with the highest growth prospects for this activity are those that make up the Gulf of Mexico coast. Specialization and competitiveness are related to the natural conditions of the producing regions, market demand and technological change.
