Mexico: Dairy and Products Semi-annual
Mexico’s fluid milk production is forecast to continue its steady growth in 2019 although its dairy sector still requires imports of high quality and value-added ingredients to supply its processing industries. High demand for cheeses continue to drive domestic production and increased imports, with cheese imports likely to grow after the recent removal of retaliatory tariffs on U.S. cheeses and other agricultural products. Mexico’s new presidential administration instituted new assistance programs to improve food security and increase self-sufficiency in fluid milk and other commodities.
