Also explain the services sector, which is comprised of education, tourism, etc.. So also talk about his economic growth as Mexican republic status.

Geography
With a total area of 50,483 km2 and a coastline of 900 km, the state of Quintana Roo is composed of the territory attached to the continental shelf and the islands of Cozumel and Isla Mujeres.
Note that the virtual border the Gulf of Mexico to the Caribbean Sea is located within its boundaries, which means a wide variety of marine species that inhabit its waters.
Like much of the Yucatan peninsula, the relief of Quintana Roo is flat with limestone caves and sinkholes and depressions. Furthermore, we find the rivers Hondo, Blue, Escondido and Ucum.
Hydrography
There are no water currents due to the permeability of the state (which causes sinkholes and underground streams). We found the Rio Hondo south of the entity that is also a natural border with Belize is basically formed by a deep crack that joins two ramps and through which the water.

Another major water body is the Blue River has 136 km of navigable stream and is also found as a natural border south of the entity that limits Belize Guatemala and Quintana Roo; arises in Guatemala through the Mayan Mountains, ending at the Bay Chetumal near the state capital, where it forms a channel 2.5 m deep, using boats passing through Belize. In the rainy season increases its extension taking advantage of it navigable for timber transport.

Blue River is located in the southwest of Chetumal. Other important rivers are the Jass, north of Calderitas, the Turbio Chiquilá east and south of the island of Holbox, the Indio, south of the Bay of the Holy Spirit, and Kik, northeast of Calderitas.

There are also gaps and countless undercurrents, which crop and have high performance. Sometimes emerge naturally to the surface and are called gouaches, and have agricultural and livestock uses. Sometimes they appear as layers of rock that cubreny show presentations or encuevados open wells that are simply called cenotes. Finally, there are some streams, tributaries of the Rio Hondo or flowing into Laguna Bacalar near Chetumal.

Geology
Quintana Roo forms a region with large plains and small slopes and elevations east. The predominantly limestone and permeable soil, thus allowing water infiltration of rainwater into the inner layers of underground aquifers systems, thus forming the aforementioned deposits and underground streams, which supply water to smaller towns with wells. Cenotes are water bodies that outcrop to the surface of the crust, its origin lies in water erosion caves, making them crumble and collapse causing these outcrops of water. As we said Quintana Roo is a plain of marine origin formed by Miocene rocks and Pleistocene rocks except for the bright red hills.
Tsek Land type 'is in the drained slopes and elevated areas, where water favors the presence of nutrients in its composition. The k 'Ankab lie at the foot of the highlands and products accumulate them from the weather and drainage is impeded, causing clusters clay.
The akalches are localized in the lower parts (watery and sheets with little or no drainage).
The forest covers most of the state, exceptions exist and logged areas inhabited by humans. On the coasts and lowlands surrounding regions exist where accumulate rainwater forming small ponds. These zones are uninhabited due to unsanitary pests (mosquitoes), among other factors caused by stagnant water.

Climate
The climate is tropical with summer rains, except in the southwest and southeast, dominated tropical temperature with periodic heavy rains dry winter in the northern regions. In short, the major climate in central and eastern regions, is tropical with rains in autumn. West also is tropical, but with summer rains. To the north, is savannah climate with regular rainfall and dry winter. The average annual temperature in the state is 26 ° C. The dry season covers February to May, and the rainy season from May to October, although it often lasts until January, as squalls from the north.

In 1985 he lived the most severe drought of the past few decades leading to the creation of the Emergency Drought Affected areas providing financial support to those most affected.
Also implemented the marketing of fertilizers for the proper utilization of agricultural production.
Within the state GDP of the primary sector, agriculture is the most important activity and participates with 0.19% of the national agricultural GDP. The main crops for their production value are cane sugar, jalapeño, corn, sweet orange, rice, watermelon, vegetables and fruit number. The area planted is approximately 120 000 ha of which 97% is temporary.
The main agricultural areas are located in the southern state where mainly sugar cane planting, jalapeno pepper and rice in the municipality of José María Morelos, in the center of the state have mechanized and irrigated areas where mostly watermelon seed , fruit and vegetables. The cultivation of corn and beans is widespread throughout the state surface, but for the most part are very low yields due to soil type that does not allow the lack of mechanization and irrigation infrastructure, limiting production to consumption level in the most part.

Animal Husbandry

It is practiced mostly in the towns of Pompey Othon Blanco, Felipe Carrillo Puerto, Lázaro Cárdenas and José María Morelos. The government has supported this economic activity through various partnerships, programs and activities as the Board Animal Feed, Dairy Program, distributing fodder, providing feed for livestock, poultry building in underserved communities, or delivering diverse and numerous heads cattle production.

There is a potential of 460 000 hectares suitable for cattle breeding is not used. The major species are cattle with approximately 110 thousand heads, pigs with 150 thousand heads and bees with approximately 107 000 hives.
At the household level are raised sheep, pigs and poultry. The main farming areas are located in the municipality of Othon P. Blanco, south of the entity, and the municipality of Lazaro Cardenas in the north, as well as livestock and especially bee that develops in the center of the state. For the utilization of the livestock there is a trail TIF Chetumal.

There is limited due to the lack of organization for the acceptance of modern fishing techniques, for these reasons, are promoted modernity capture technique, the organization's product and its marketing. Quintanarroenses fishermen are organized in 20 cooperatives are two technical high schools located in Puerto Morelos Holbox and, likewise, the Center for Marine Technology provides training for future men of the sea. Special attention has been given to the study of marine snail to prevent their extinction, there have been cultures of this species, as well as tilapia. The National Bank and Dock Fishing has offered its help in improving the fishing fleet.
