US resumes cattle imports via Mexico

The U.S. Department of Agriculture has announced the resumption of livestock imports through Mexican ports after more than a year of a ban imposed by Trump in May 2025 due to an outbreak of the screw-worm fly, which posed a threat to American livestock. Starting from August 24, 2026, the Arizona and New Mexico ports will reopen, with strict inspection procedures to ensure animals are free of the parasite. Despite America’s successful eradication of the fly in 1966 and controlling its return in 2017, the emergence of new cases led to the ban and impacted meat export data, with declared sales decreasing by 90%. The measures indicate efforts to restore meat trade while ensuring the protection of livestock from the parasite.
