Abstract

Competition from imported pork and the desire to export pork have influenced Mexican government policies and have resulted in improved pork quality and safety. At the same time, a two-tiered system is emerging that offers wealthier domestic consumers the opportunity to purchase pork produced under safer conditions and limits poorer consumers to pork produced with few food safety controls.
