Objective: To establish if the price of the main products of the Mexican agricultural sector is cointegrated with the production of the main producing states in five agricultural regions of Mexico.Design/Methodology/Approach: Thirty cointegration tests were carried out to determine if the prices of the main agricultural products in Mexico (corn kernel, sorghum kernel, and beans) inf luence the production of the main producing states in the five agricultural regions of Mexico.Results: In the northwestern region, the price does not inf luence the production of the main producing states of corn kernel, sorghum kernel, and beans. In the northeastern, central-western, and central regions, the price does inf luence the production of the main producing states of the said produce; meanwhile, in most of the states in the southern-southeastern region, the price does not affect the production of the main producing states.Study Limitations/Implications: The analysis did not include all states and their main products.Findings/Conclusions: The price inf luences production, but its inf luence is not even in the five regions of Mexico or in the main producing states of corn kernel, sorghum kernel, and beans.
