Poverty in Mexico has increased considerably in the last decade. In the last 7 years more than 12 million Mexicans entered the ranks of poverty, which has generated that the current situation is critical, because now more than 61 million Mexicans are living in poverty. It should be noted that poverty has increased compared to the large gap in income inequality, lack of economic growth and creation of wealth.Low economic growth in Mexico, as well as foreign food dependency and volatility in international food prices, enerated the concern to feed thousands of families, intensifying food insecurity. Therefore, this paper presents an analysis of the lack of food production in the Mexican domestic market, and analyzes the main causes of volatility in international food prices in recent years, with the risks that this implies for the country.
