Watchman: The United States Issues A Warning That Imports Of Mexican Beef Could Be Suspended Next Week Due To A Crisis Involving Flesh-eating Flies

BY SRH

Ranchers in the United States have been subjected to a great deal of harm as a result of multinational firms flooding the food supply chain with inexpensive beef imports from third-world countries. A significant portion of this beef is sold in supermarkets without the customers being aware of its origin. The United States Department of Agriculture issued a warning to Mexico on Saturday, stating that the United States will stop importing live animals, such as cattle and bison, unless Mexico increases its efforts to control pests. This warning was made in an effort to protect customers from parasites that feed on flesh and to provide support to ranchers who run small businesses.

At first, it was reported by Fox News that the United States Secretary of Agriculture, Brooke Rollins, had written a scathing letter to the Mexican Secretary of Agriculture, Julio Antonio Berdegué Sacristán, in which she threatened to restrict the importation of livestock from Mexico to the United States if Mexico’s government did not take immediate action to address the New World Screwworm by the middle of the following week.

“I must inform you that if these issues are not resolved by Wednesday, April 30, USDA will restrict the importation of animal commodities, which consist of live cattle, bison, and equine originating from or transporting to Mexico to protect the interests of the agriculture industry in the United States,” Rollins wrote in the letter, obtained by Fox.
It is logical to maintain an underweight position in US equities, according to Haghani.

She remarked, “We have reached a pivotal moment in our collective effort against this pest, and I am quite worried about our partnership.”

“The outbreak in southern Mexico is continuing to grow, and each day that goes by without the complete implementation of sterile insect technique (SIT) operations signifies a missed chance to control this pest and stop its spread beyond the Isthmus of Tehuantepec,” Rollins remarked.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that the New World Screwworm preys on open wounds in warm-blooded animals, such as birds, deer, and humans, depositing hundreds of eggs that develop into flesh-eating maggots.

Rollins’ message is unmistakably clear: Act swiftly to address the issue of the screwworm fly by:

Obtain a one-year or indefinite operational clearance for Dynamic Aviation.

Eliminate import duties for materials related to NWS.

Designate a senior representative to address bureaucratic challenges.

… or encounter trade restrictions on the importation of live cattle, bison, and equine into the U.S.

Consumers may not be aware that in 2023, the U.S. imported 3.7 billion pounds of beef, which represented 15% of the total beef consumption in the country. This volume surged to unprecedented levels as a result of a dwindling U.S. cattle herd, driving supermarket prices to new peaks.

At the beginning of the year, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s annual Cattle Inventory report indicated that the country’s cattle supply had decreased to a 73-year low, amounting to approximately 86.6 million head.
