During the first four months with Andres Manuel López Obrador as president, the main centre of studies, which have B.A.s, and specialization and postgraduate studies in agriculture, ranching, forest growth, fishing, agroindustry, and processed food, training and agriculture extensions are on strike. Paralyzed! On salary petitions.

There are fourth months in which students, professors, researchers, authorities, administrative, and academic personnel are doing nothing, for the so-called Cuarta Transformación while syndical leaders and federal authorities are immersed on a fight for a salary rise of at least 20% and some other labour benefits.

It seems that in Mexico, is not urgent to have more food, which can allow us to cancel the index of malnutrition, in which millions of Mexicans are. To complete the picture the federal budget in 2019 itself, is considered horrible.
