Mexico has seen a significant increase in grain imports, including yellow corn, wheat, rice, and beans, with the latter two reaching record levels. The country depends on imports for approximately 65% of its total grain consumption, as it only produces 35%. This reliance on international markets is causing concern for food security.

Conversely, imports have risen by 17%.
