The reporting
Live cattle exports from Mexico to the United States are set to resume under screwworm controls as a yearlong import ban ends, with northern Mexico’s Sonora state preparing the first shipments. The ban was imposed over the New World screwworm, a parasitic fly whose larvae feed on living tissue and can kill cattle. Sonora rancher Martín Alfonso Ibarra has 16 calves ready for export, but producers say the initial flow will be too limited to quickly clear accumulated animals. Some U.S. ranchers remain concerned about biosecurity risk.
