Due to the rough terrain that composes most of Mexico, as well as many areas that are non-suitable for agriculture, such as the Yucatan Peninsula (it is covered by tropical rainforests with poor soils) or northwestern Mexico, which is dominated by the Sonoran and Chihuahuan deserts.
You should note however, that this "small patch of land" is quite big, actually: Mexico has a vast territory, where almost 12% is used for agriculture. This means 232,761 square kilometers (89,869 sq mi), which are almost the size of the whole United Kingdom, are used to grow food and cash crops. Then another 16% of Mexico's territory (315,608 sq km/121,857 sq mi or a bit bigger than Poland or New Mexico) is considered as man-made or natural pastures, where cattle of several species is raised including bovine, caprine, porcine and poultry.
