When did Mexico resume cattle exports to the US?

Mexico resumed live cattle exports to the United States on August 24, 2026. This followed a halt of nearly two years that was put in place due to a screwworm outbreak.

What caused the halt in cattle exports?

The exports were halted due to a screwworm outbreak. This pest, caused by the Cochliomyia hominivorax fly, infests open wounds and can be devastating to livestock. It has been reported in both Mexico and the US.

What new protocols are in place for cattle exports?

The US approved a new protocol that includes placing radio-frequency identification (RFID) tags in cattle ears and installing scanners to detect them. Daily cattle crossing limits into Arizona have also been implemented.

How has the screwworm outbreak affected the US cattle industry?

The Trump administration's controls are cited as a factor slowing the recovery of the US cattle industry. This has contributed to low cattle counts, with herds reportedly at their lowest in 75 years, and a shortfall of about 1.2 million cows, leading to a surge in beef prices.
