USDA Reopens Arizona Port for Mexican Cattle | El Paso News
Description
The USDA is set to reopen the Douglas, Arizona port for Mexican cattle imports starting August 24th, but only if Mexico sticks to its parasite control plan. The closure, now one year old, was enacted to stop the spread of the deadly New World screwworm, which has infected 42 U.S. livestock cases—mostly in Texas. The agency is focusing on Sonora and Chihuahua as the safest zones, and industry leaders are watching closely as normal trade resumes.
