A recent deployment of additional soldiers aims to protect areas where avocados are produced, a key export product. This move may reduce violence in certain areas of the state of Michoacán. However, it could also lead to criminal groups shifting their activities to other, more vulnerable sectors.

The information comes from a report by the non-governmental organization ACLED. The report's findings were released this week, following a suspension of US government activities in the area due to threats against American interests.

Further details on the situation and its potential implications are available from the source, including the potential consequences of the soldiers' deployment and the impact on other sectors.
