Farmers in Texas Mexico use gasoline lime against flesh-eating parasite as 2026 sterilization delay sparks crisis
-
最新报道：Texas farmers face a growing crisis as Mexico delays the 2026 deadline to sterilize lime imports, allowing flesh-eating parasites to spread through citrus shipments. The U.S. had demanded Mexico treat limes with irradiation or vapor heat to eliminate the citrus black spot disease, but Mexican producers argue the measures are too costly. Meanwhile, gasoline shortages in northern Mexico are disrupting cross-border trade, further straining agricultural supply chains. The unresolved sterilization dispute and fuel logistics challenges threaten Texas' $200M annual lime imports, raising food safety concerns and potential price spikes for consumers. Industry groups urge bilateral talks to address both the parasite risk and trade bottlenecks before the situation escalates.
