The United States has temporarily suspended new avocado shipments from Mexico following an incident that endangered American agricultural inspectors. The decision to halt exports from Michoacan was made after inspectors were reportedly held against their will and attacked during a protest. The US Department of Agriculture has paused avocado and mango inspections in the region due to security concerns, with exports from Jalisco unaffected. Mexican officials are working to address the issue to resume exports to the US.
