The symposium aimed to address the various challenges related to social responsibility currently faced by Mexican producers. It focused on analyzing the potential consequences of these challenges and exploring ways in which producers can adapt to drive positive changes and enhance conditions for their collaborators.

The event featured four conferences, two discussions, and three workshops. Topics covered included competitiveness, strategies for retaining farm personnel and reducing turnover, drought-related issues, and the recent labor reforms. Notably, discussions delved into mandatory food provisions for farm workers, among other critical matters.

And, of course, innovation remained a central theme. We have witnessed its impact across all facets of agricultural companies: from greenhouses and packaging to administrative processes, and notably, in the realm of social responsibility was not overlooked. Through the strategic use of artificial intelligence and big data, producers have been empowered to make informed decisions and enhance services and benefits for their employees.

Undoubtedly, this forum has emerged as one of the most significant national platforms for addressing agricultural social responsibility issues. Producers eagerly anticipate it year after year, seeking updates from the field’s most qualified experts.
