The Expo Agroalimentaria Guanajuato is on. Yesterday, the first day of this four day event, saw a slightly slow start, kicking off with some showers in the morning.
Despite slow traffic and the rainy start, the atmosphere among the exhibitors is positive; many of them are happy with the current growth of the Mexican greenhouse industry and are still expanding in this market.
Mexican growers are eager to improve the quality and yield of their crop and are willing to invest in it. At this moment however, many exhibitors notice that growers are withholding large investments a bit. “In July 2018, a new president was elected and growers would probably rather wait till his inauguration in December and see what will happen afterwards”, an exhibitor says.
