| Summary: | The arrival of U.S. investment in the Zamora Valley Region in 1952 inaugurated a stage of strawberry production, which led to the installation of an intensive model of agricultural production, creating the most important strawberry-producing region in the country. After a crisis and restructuring of this model, a new phase was created, from 1990, based on flexibility and dispossession, controlled by food corporations that expanded and diversified berry production in Michoacán. This research was based on the collection of testimonies from agricultural producers, day laborers and the review of official statistics. |
