The participating Mexican groups are:
•Confederacion de Asociaciones Agrícolas del Estado de Sinaloa AC (CAADES)
•Consejo Agrícola de Baja California AC (CABC)
•Asociación Mexicana de Horticultura Protegida AC (AMHPAC)
•Union Agricola Regional de Sonora Productores de Hortalizas Frutas y Legumbres (UARS)
