Main Article Content
Abstract
A comparison is made of the revealed comparative advantages of a basket of 37 products, which the Mexican federal government classified as part of the 2016-2013 National Agricultural Planning, as an axis for the growth of agricultural activity. In order to know the existence of Revealed Comparative Advantages (RCAs), and their positioning in North America, the calculation of the Balassa index of the 37 products of Mexico, USA and Canada during the period 1990-2017 is carried out. The results indicate that Mexico has RCAs in 15/37 products: of which, 4 in basic products and 11 with market potential. The dependence of North American imports on basic products for human consumption is also evident.
