Sinaloa agricultural and fishing sectors face economic aid],

Overview

Following the implementation of a multi-sector strategic plan in Sinaloa, agricultural and fishing organizations are intensifying demands for federal intervention to address mounting economic pressures.

As producers prepare for the 2026-2027 autumn-winter cycle, agricultural leaders—including CAADES, AARFS, and AARSP—have sought dialogue with President Claudia Sheinbaum during her visit to Culiacán. Key priorities include liquidity, timely financing, and the availability of inputs. The group Campesinos Unidos has called for demonstrations, citing severe difficulties caused by unpaid subsidies and complex registration processes. They are specifically demanding an end to grain pricing based on the Chicago Board of Trade to protect regional profitability.

In the fishing sector, economic crises in Sinaloa and Sonora have prompted calls for emergency aid. In Sinaloa, Senator Paloma Sánchez Ramos has proposed restructuring support, arguing that the current Bienpesca annual payment of 8,000 pesos is insufficient to combat high diesel costs and illegal fishing. Producers also report that the market is being undercut by approximately 40,000 tons of Ecuadorian shrimp.

In Sonora, fishermen are facing rising debts due to poor seasons and disruptions from Hurricane Polo. Representatives from the National Confederation of Fishing Cooperatives (Conacoop) have suggested adjusting future shrimp seasons to begin in the third week of August to better align with historical fishing conditions and mitigate the impact of delayed seasons.
