James F. Evans Collection, In the state of Jalisco, Mexico, results from postgraduate training for production oriented private consultants have been dramatic. The program is backed by FIRA (Fondo de Grantia y Fomento para la Agricultura Ganaderia y Fideicomisos Agricolas), a part of the agricultural branch of the Bank of Mexico. Results clearly show that yields of corn and other grains in west-central Mexico can be increased and that unit cost of production can be reduced.

12 pages, The food justice movement addresses systemic food inequities impacting BIPOC communities, rooted in civil rights and environmental justice movements. It advocates for fair access to culturally relevant food, combating food deserts, and promoting food sovereignty. Recognizing intersectionality, it emphasizes collaboration to dismantle systemic barriers. This study aims to understand BIPOC communities' challenges and effective strategies, stressing the importance of collaborative efforts for lasting systemic change. Extension professionals face challenges but can contribute through equity-focused strategies, community engagement, and partnerships, advancing food justice and fostering inclusive food systems.
