Land
Protected agriculture concentrates in states such as Jalisco, Querétaro, Sinaloa, Guanajuato and Baja California, largely oriented to export. Confirm land tenure (including ejido status where relevant) and utility access before committing.

Greenhouse project feasibility in Mexico
For growers and investors planning protected agriculture (agricultura protegida), seed or irrigation projects in Jalisco, Querétaro, Sinaloa and other states.
The four feasibility factors
Water
Water is the binding constraint in most producing states: concessions are administered by CONAGUA and overexploited aquifers are publicly documented in several regions. Confirm the concession and source for the site before design.
Energy
Electricity tariffs and gas availability vary by region; ventilation and cooling dominate in lowland tropics, while highland sites need some heating. Confirm utility capacity early.
Climate
Highland clusters allow year-round production with moderate heating; coastal and northern zones need cooling and shading. Hail and hurricane exposure affect structure specification in some states.
Local regulations
Plant health imports are overseen by SENASICA and plant nutrition products fall under COFEPRIS/SENASICA frameworks; water concessions sit with CONAGUA. Confirm current requirements before importing.
Competent authority: SENASICA / COFEPRIS frameworks and CONAGUA (water) — confirm current requirements
Official sources — Mexico
Orientation only — not legal, engineering or agronomic advice. Confirm land, water, energy and regulatory conditions with the competent authorities and your advisors before committing.
