U.S., Mexico Reach New Water Delivery Agreement
5 weeks ago
The United States and Mexico have reached a new agreement on cross-border water deliveries, requiring Mexico to send at least 350,000 acre-feet of water annually to the U.S. during the current five-year cycle.
The deal comes after President Donald Trump had warned of possible tariffs on Mexican imports if water deliveries did not increase, citing concerns for Texas farmers.
The agreement is designed to stabilize water supplies, though some Mexican farmers, especially in drought-affected northern regions, say it could strain their own water resources.
