US ranchers warn of screwworm threat as Mexico relents under USDA pressure

The country’s highest livestock leader appeared on Tuesday, in which the flying injury to the body, which is advancing through Mexico, was still a distinct threat to American livestock, even when the Trump administration won a major victory in the efforts made.

Pak Wrby, head of the National Cows Association in Cattlement (NCBA), praised livestock from East Nebraska, Minister of Agriculture Brooke Brook to take aggressive measures against the new nail worm in the world, a parasitic fly that can be wandered around the meat of antiquities.

But wehrbein warned that with only one day remaining before the warning in the United States, the “crisis is far from ending” and American cattle herds remain in danger.

“If this spiral worm crosses to the United States, our industry may destroy,” he told Fox News Digital in an exclusive interview.

“These parasites literally eat livestock. We have clarified them from the United States in the 1960s, and we are not about to allow them to complicate here again.”

Wehrbein noted that the United States government has spent millions of dollars to eliminate the new global worm decades ago – only until the lesion returns in Central America and start crawling north towards Texas.

The nail worm was first discovered in southern Mexico at the end of last year, prompting the American authorities to stood resources to contain them. The US Department of Agriculture has temporarily suspended Mexican livestock imports from late November to February after a spiral worm case appeared in Chapas, which confirms the seriousness of officials on the threat of American food supplies.

Now, US agricultural officials are racing to build a final barrier against the physical eating fly before reaching the border. For decades, the United States and Mexico have relied on the advanced sterile insect technology program (SIT), using aircraft to launch millions of sterile male flies to maintain spiral worm groups. But this strategy was recently put forward in chaos amid bureaucratic intervention by the Mexican authorities, which US officials say the tasks of release the critical fly and were delayed exactly as fascism intensified.

According to representatives of the US Department of Agriculture and representatives of the livestock industry, Mexico failed to “support its end” for the efforts to eliminate patriotism by rejecting landing permits, charging import duties on the equipment funded by the United States and limiting a decrease in aviation to six days a week, and the conditions that officials say they allowed the pests to spread more.

Wehrbein did not hide his frustration.

“We were withdrawing our hair,” he said. “The flag exists to stop this error, but not if the planes are based on kites. Every day of the delay gave the screed the larger foothold.”

In a message on April 26, which was obtained by Fox News Digital, Secretary Rollins Mexico gave a final date on April 30 to resolve issues or face a stopping in importing live cattle, bissun and horses, a step that would blow the economy of Mexico farm and tighten our supply chains already under pressure.

“He certainly caught their attention,” he pointed out. “No one wants to close the trade. This last resort would harm producers on both sides. But Minister Rollins and president Trump have made clear that protecting the herds of America comes first.”

Wrbeen said that NCBA met with senior officials of the Mexican embassy in Washington last week to confirm the insistence.

“The livestock farmers in Mexico and the United States are on the same side here. We need to stop this scourge,” said Wrbein. “He should not take high -level threats to get logical cooperation.”

On Tuesday, Rollins posted to X that Mexico agreed to allow us to fell sterile planes, describing it as “a great victory for the American educators!”

Fox News Digital has contacted the office of the secretary Rollins for more details and confirmation, but has not yet received a response.

Wehrbein welcomed the advertisement, saying it represents a turning point, but not the end of the threat.

“Returning these flying aircraft in the air is very important. It is a comfort to see Mexico in the end to do the right thing,” he said. “Frankly, this should not take a long time. But at least we have an opportunity to fight to contain fascism before it reached our borders.”

Although airline permissions have been restored, it is still unclear whether Mexico will give up import duties or allow seven days operations, both of whom requested the US Department of Agriculture. Rollins also called for a major contact with the Mexican government to ensure that it has moved forward faster.

In the long run, Wehrbein said that the United States needs to reconsider the amount of dependence on the external partners of biomed security.

“This position explains why we need our local supply of sterile flies,” he said. “If we have a facility here at home that move them, we will not be at the mercy of another country’s cooperation.”

Wehrbein was raised on a farm in East Nebraska, an incense of the livestock fighters, and spent years in the business of Texas. He is now managing a feeding outside or directly, and has worked in leadership roles on both the state and the national level. This year, he was elected head of NCBA, the largest and oldest organization in the country representing livestock producers, and the voice of the group has become the main in Washington.

“We love this industry. We are proud to feed the country and the world,” he said. “But it requires vigilance, cooperation and leadership to protect it. The spiral worm is a reminder that we always go out of the catastrophe, and we have to stay in front of it.”
