Agro technology:

Different technologies, different farms and locations troughout the Mexican Republic, one same goal: to bring the best and healthiest produce to international consumers.
Just as in the United States, produce is grown on all different kinds of farms in Mexico, from those using the latest technology to traditional operations that have been in hard-working families for generations. What the U.S. and Mexico also have in common is our mutual commitment to the safety of produce grown on our nations’ farms, which is especially important as the food supply continues to become more global.
The aplication of organic food safe fertilizers increase crop yields, increase the quality of produce, and make of agriculture an easier lifestyle for producers and consumers.
Mexico also shares another quality with the U.S. and other nations: It has the academic capital and capacity to engage in both high tech and traditional farming, and to successfully meet these new safety standards designed to prevent foodborne illness with the use of agro technologies in fertilizers.
At Vallecitos our dedication and commitment to offer the best quality produce is as deep as our roots in agriculture. We will keep doing this for future generations to come.
While there are differences in our systems, technologies, and environments, the U.S. and Mexico both want consumers to be confident in the safety of their food. By working together, we have been achieveng this and keep building a better future for our children.

There is a significant number of MRAs (mutual recognition agreements) between Mexican and U.S. organizations. However, at present, none of these agreements exempt U.S. products from complying with all applicable Mexican technical regulations and product certification requirements. MRAs are mainly to recognize testing procedures. U.S. exporters should check with the appropriate Mexican certification body as to the existence of any MRAs.
