Mexico’s feeder cattle exports to the United States faced a significant disruption after the New World screwworm was detected in November 2024, prompting a trade suspension.
Exports resumed in February 2025 through limited ports under strict inspection protocols, starting with San Jeronimo, Chihuahua, and Agua Prieta, Sonora, via the Santa Teresa NM and Douglas AZ ports of entry.
By March 2025, Nogales became the fourth operational port, while other ports are still awaiting authorization to install inspection pens.
