Abstract
The main aim of this paper is to analyze the competitiveness of the agrifood industry and, within it, the meat sector, in the Spanish regions, using elements that undoubtedly influence this such as productivity, labor costs and food security. The main conclusions allow us to identify the enormous economic potential of the Spanish food sector, and the meat sub-sector in particular. Aspects such as the type of meat or the level of internationalization help us to identify those Spanish regions which require additional effort in food policy to keep its competitiveness is impaired.
