During the 1990's Mexico was going through a process of economic liberalization, including privatization of state-controlled industries, as well as opening to international trade and business. NAFTA was just one of many policies implemented by the Mexican government towards that end.

Some results include a jump in trade between the United States and Mexico from $81.4 billion in 1993 (pre-NAFTA) up to $534.4 billion in 2014 and a steady increase of foreign direct investment into Mexico, from $4.3 billion in 1993 up to $42.1 billion by 2014.

Is nafta unfair to American farmers?

In this case study indicate that reduction in tariffs with passing NAFTA on agricultural products farmers have had difficulty competing with Mexican producers. This is primarily due to lower administrative costs and the lack of regulations surrounding the development of comparative Mexican produce. NAFTA has been unfair for some farmers in Florida as a family industry in America. Due to passing NAFTA some industries have been close their businesses because they do not compete prices with Mexico farmers. Without tariffs on farms goods some American farms have not been able to make a profit and stay in business. (sunshine farns withering since nafta, 2014) Their American counterparts make $18 per hour. Why would any manufacturer want to produce here in America and pay $18-20 per hour when the same product can be produced right across the border in Mexico for just $3 per hour? ( Economy In Crisis ) There the impact of negativity of NAFTA on Florida farms as reduction in profit and competitive edge and shut down the business, there occur benefits for some other area of America like Mexico from the passage of the NAFTA.
