Abstract:
From one of the components of the model for the production of corn "Granos del sur" applicable
under irrigation conditions in south-eastern Mexico, a forum of inter-institutional linkage was
held in which 12 governmental and private institutions participated, represented by the headlines
or staff with voice and vote to make decisions. The objective was to analyze the potential
collaboration with human, material and economic resources among the institutions to promote
the model for the production of corn under irrigation and its contribution to food security in
Mexico. To this end, the methodology of social network analysis suggested by Rovere (1999)
was followed. It was found that the existing links of knowledge, work, cooperation and
association to support the producers of maize under irrigation are severely limited as more
resources are committed from one institution to another due to the internal regulations of each
institution, whatever their origin, governmental or private.
