October 2014 Major Infrastructure Projects in Mexico 3 About This Guide The U.S. Trade and Development Agency (USTDA) helps companies create U.S. jobs through the export of U.S. goods and services for priority development projects in emerging economies. USTDA links U.S. businesses to export opportunities by funding project planning activities, pilot projects and reverse trade missions while creating sustainable infrastructure and economic growth in partner countries. This guide has been developed to provide U.S. companies and exporters with an overview of Mexico’s infrastructure sectors, the sector development plans in place through 2018, and to provide profiles of a sample of specific, upcoming projects of potential interest. Currency amounts converted from Mexican Pesos (MXN) to United States dollars (USD) have been done so using a rate of 13.12 pesos to one dollar. Due to fluctuations in currency values, different levels of engineering and cost estimation completion for different projects, and differing timing of cost information publication, the monetary values within this report should only be considered approximate. Unless explicitly indicated otherwise, all currency values are in United States Dollars (USD). All exhibits and images are sourced from Mexican government publications, unless otherwise indicated.

  • Avocado Studies in Mexico in 1938
    California Avocado Association 1938 Yearbook 23: 67-85 Avocado Studies in Mexico in 1938 A. D. SHAMEL Principal Physiologist, Division of Fruit and Vegetable Crops and Diseases United States Department of Agriculture, Bureau of Plant Industry The Fuerte is the most important commercial avocado variety grown in California, since more than seventy-five per cent of the acreage and production is of that variety. This relatively high proportion is increasing because the Fuerte trees in southern California have survived low winter temperatures more successfully than most other commercial varieties. The Fuerte variety originated as a bud propagation of the parent Fuerte tree (fig. 1) that is located in the Le Blanc garden at Atlixco, state of Puebla, Mexico. The next most important commercial variety, Puebla, has been propagated in southern California from buds of a tree in the Vicente Pineda garden (fig. 2) that is located near the Le Blanc garden. The buds from the parent trees of both the Fuerte and Puebla were obtained at the same time, 1911, by Carl B. Schmidt of Mexico City, and sent to the West India Gardens at Altadena, California. The recent visit of about fifty members of the California Avocado Association and friends to Atlixco on April 17, 1938, was for the purpose of unveiling a memorial tablet at the site of the Fuerte tree and presenting medals to Alejandro Le Blanc, son of the man who planted the parent Fuerte tree, and to Carl B. Schmidt, who sent the buds to California. Appropriate congratulatory speeches were made by the Governor of the state of Puebla, the Secretary of the Mexican Department of Agriculture representatives of the U.

From a supply perspective, a fragmented home builder industry, a non competitive lending community and a non existent apartment rental sector has created a persisting housing deficit year over year. As a result of the supply and demand imbalance, BAM sees an opportunity to make significant risk adjusted returns by partnering with small and mid- sized local developers to provide new housing alternatives for the emerging middle class of Mexico. 3 Strong Demographics Will Drive Growth 4 Wealth Creation and Emerging Middle Class • Mexico has the 6th largest GDP per capita in the Americas with significant room for growth in the years to come. $60,000 GDP per Capita PPP $USD $50,000 $40,000 $30,000 $20,000 $10,000 $- Argentina Brazil Canada Colombia Mexico United States Source: International Monetary Fund (IMF), World Economic Outlook Database, April 2016. 5 Wealth Creation and Emerging Middle Class • Between 1992 and 2010, 42 million people became part of the Mexican middle class (annual income US$18-$50,000).

  • An Update on Security, Migration, and U.S. Assistance November 2015
    An Update on Security, Migration, and U.S. Assistance By Adam Isacson, Senior Associate for Regional Security; Maureen Meyer, Senior Associate for Mexico and Migrant Rights; and Hannah Smith, Program Assistant November 2015 Key Findings migration crackdown has been changes in how migrants are traveling. With decreased possibilities of boarding the train in Chiapas, migrants and smugglers are now relying on different and dangerous routes and modes of transportation, including by foot, vehicle, and boat. These routes expose migrants to new vulnerabilities while simultaneously isolating them from the network of shelters established along traditional routes. Raids and operations to prevent migrants from riding atop cargo trains, known collectively as La Bestia, have been the most visible and aggressive enforcement efforts under the Southern Border Program. Migration authorities have blocked migrants from boarding trains, pulled migrants off of trains, and raided establishments that migrants are known to frequent, detaining thousands. The train operations have prompted concerns about excessive use-of-force and other abuses by the authorities involved. U.S. assistance to help Mexico secure its southern border region has increased, though there is limited transparency regarding dollar values, recipient units, equipment, and training. Additionally, some of the U.S.-donated equipme has seen little use and was reported to be ill-suited for the terrain in this region. For example, U.S.-donated observation towers serve little purpose at the densely forested Mexico-Guatemala border. U.S.-donated biometric data equipment was also observed to be in disuse or only used sporadically. The Southern Border Program brought an increase in mobile checkpoints, and new customs facilities have opened since its launch.

  • Water Governance Decentralisation and River Basin Management Reforms in Hierarchical Systems
    water Article Water Governance Decentralisation and River Basin Management Reforms in Hierarchical Systems: Do They Work for Water Treatment Policy in Mexico’s Tlaxcala Atoyac Sub-Basin? Cesar Casiano Flores *, Vera Vikolainen † and Hans Bressers † Department of Governance and Technology for Sustainability (CSTM), University of Twente, Enschede 7500AE, The Netherlands; [email protected] (V.V.); [email protected] (H.B.) * Correspondence: c.a.casianofl[email protected]; Tel.: +31-68-174-6250 † These authors contributed equally to this work. Academic Editors: Sharon B. Megdal, Susanna Eden and Eylon Shamir Received: 22 February 2016; Accepted: 11 May 2016; Published: 19 May 2016 Abstract: In the last decades, policy reforms, new instruments development, and economic resources investment have taken place in water sanitation in Mexico; however, the intended goals have not been accomplished. The percentage of treated wastewater as intended in the last two federal water plans has not been achieved. The creation of River Basin Commissions and the decentralisation process have also faced challenges. In the case of Tlaxcala, the River Basin Commission exists only on paper and the municipalities do not have the resources to fulfil the water treatment responsibilities transferred to them. This lack of results poses the question whether the context was sufficiently considered when the reforms were enacted. In this research, we will study the Tlaxcala Atoyac sub-basin, where water treatment policy reforms have taken place recently with a more context sensitive approach. We will apply the Governance Assessment Tool in order to find out whether the last reforms are indeed apt for the context.
