“We have seen sustained growth over the past five years, ranging between 2.0% and 2.2%, with production reaching around 13.3 billion liters of milk. For 2025, the outlook is between 2.1% and 2.2%,” he stated.
The country produces between 74% and 75% of the milk it consumes.
The Mexican Association of Milk Producers (AMLAC) expects to end 2024 with a growth in milk production of up to 2.2% compared to last year, due to the sector’s strengthening, said Octavio Hernández Álvarez, the organization’s general director.
For 2025, the outlook is to grow between 2.1% and 2.2%, with a positive outlook on per capita consumption, he highlighted at the 21st Global Agrifood Forum: Innovating for Food Security.
“Unfortunately, we have to rely on imports to complement our milk consumption. But we really see it as a supplement,” he emphasized.
He noted that the industry depends on the United States as the main supplier due to its proximity to Mexico. However, he ruled out an increase in exports from that country for next year, given the exchange rate levels, estimated at 19.90 pesos per dollar, and greater milk availability worldwide.
He explained that, from the producers’ perspective, a high exchange rate is beneficial as it raises milk prices in the markets.
