Objective: To characterize the mango value network in the state of Campeche and identify its challenges. Design/Methodology/Scope: Based on secondary information and 40 semi-structured interviews, the structure of the value network structure, its key actors and technology was identified. Results: Researches recommend a high-density plantation of 3,333 plants ha-1, although producers seek to increase from 69 to 278 plants ha-1 only. Generating new production technologies for major cultivars such as Tommy Atkins, Manila and Criollo are required; their vegetative vigor responds differently to local humidity, rain and soil conditions due to their monoembryonic or polyembryonic origin. Study Limitations/Implications: Producers in the social sector do not keep accounting and production records. An estimate of mango yields, investment, income and profits was obtained based on the opinion of producers from the social and business sector of Campeche. Findings/Conclusions: Mango producers in the social sector are willing to grow their orchards with 278 plants ha-1; the production technologies of the Tommy Atkins, Manila and Criollo mango cultivars are required and production costs should be estimated. Private sector producers choose to convert mango crops to Persian lime in high plantation density; they deem it to be a priority to address the handling of the fruit fly and its marketing.
