Abstract: A study whose purpose was to evaluate the performance of the extension workers in charge of providing technical assistance to cactus producers within the agricultural extension program at Mexico City (CDMX). The entities responsible for the program were the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (SADER) and the Ministry of Environment and Rural Development (SEMADER) of the Government of CDMX. In addition, it was supported by two institutions; one dedicated to the training of rural producers and one of research, the first in the methodological part that fell to INCA Rural and the second, in the National Institute of Forestry, Agriculture and Livestock Research (INIFAP) that accompanied the extension workers in the part of research and innovation. Six technical advisers (extension agents) and a coordinator participated in the development of their activities in the town hall of Milpa Alta and Xochimilco, where a population of 245 producers were directly assisted, which implemented 24 innovations in the primary links, transformation, commercialization and organization of producers.
