About agriculture in San José del Progreso

Located in the Ocotlán District of Oaxaca's Central Valleys, San José del Progreso sits within a landscape of rolling hills and semi-arid plains. The surrounding rural area is characterized by traditional Oaxacan countryside, where small-scale farming plots intermingle with native vegetation and rugged terrain typical of the southern Mexican highlands.

Agriculture in this region revolves around the traditional milpa system, producing essential crops such as maize, beans, and squash. Additionally, the cultivation of agave for the local mezcal industry is a significant economic activity, alongside small-scale livestock rearing, including goats and cattle that graze on the local vegetation adapted to the dry climate.

Farm workers and agronomists can expect a demand for labor tied to the planting and harvesting cycles of seasonal crops and agave. Opportunities often arise in plantation management and the maintenance of traditional farms, requiring a good understanding of local soil conditions and sustainable land use practices in an environment with limited rainfall.
