Michoacan, where the inspection and threat occurred, though almost 80% of the avocados grown there went to U.S. markets in 2020 and 2021."The safety of USDA employees simply doing their jobs is of paramount importance," the department said.
It added that Mexican organizations implemented new measures to increase safety for U.S. inspectors working in the field.More than 90% of the U.S.' avocado imports came from Mexico in 2021, or roughly 1.1 million metric tons worth $2.8 billion. Michoacan is the only state in Mexico fully authorized to export avocados to the U.S., so the temporary suspension effectively amounted to a pause on all imports of Mexican avocados.
