New World Screwworm<br \/>\n\t\t<\/h2>\n<p>\u201cThe United States ordered the suspension of livestock imports through ports of entry along our southern border after the continued spread of the New World Screwworm in Mexico,\u201d said US Secretary of Agriculture Brooke L. Rollins in May.<\/p>\n<p>New World Screwworm found in Mexico is a recent hot topic of discussion and has re-emerged as a threat to livestock. \u201cIt is a really interesting tale and it certainly is a worry,\u201d Corkran said in reference to New World Screwworm in the recent RaboResearch podcast in mid-June. The outbreak in Mexico recently has led to the US border being closed off to prevent the entry of New World Screwworm.<\/p>\n<p>It has been detected in remote farms with minimal cattle movement as far north as Oaxaca and Veracruz, about 700 miles away from the US border, according to the USDA. However, in the podcast discussion, Higgins added that it\u2019s recently been found within 100 miles of the US\/Mexico border.<\/p>\n<p>The impact of the border closures will tighten US supplies even more (5% of steer and heifer cattle come from Mexico) and affect live cattle trade, Corkran said in the podcast, and the expectations from US officials is that the closure will remain the case for the coming months and remains a looming threat for US livestock producers and could cost producers millions in losses.<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/2d2y284h\" target=\"_blank\" tabindex=\"-1\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/vetnewsandviews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/banner-6.webp\" alt=\"Nearly 1000 UK Dairy Farmers Exit Industry in Last 4 Years\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" data-dominant-color=\"878254\" style=\"--dominant-color: #878254\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/2d2y284h\" target=\"_blank\">Close to 1000 UK Dairy Producers Leave the Sector Past 4 Years<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Click and Read This News<\/p>\n<p>Texas is on the front lines of the threat posed by New World Screwworm, says the USDA. On 18 June, Rollins announced the launch of a US$8.5 million sterile New World screwworm fly dispersal facility in South Texas and a 5-pronged plan to enhance USDA\u2019s already robust ability to detect, control, and eliminate this parasitic fly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe United States has defeated NWS before and we will do it again,\u201d said Rollins. \u201cWe do not take lightly the threat New World screwworm poses to our livestock industry, our economy, and our food supply chain.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The New World Screwworm was eradicated from the US in the 1960s. Recently, the first case of New World Screwworm in Mexico was reported to the US in November 2024. Over the last 2 years, screwworm has spread north throughout Panama and into Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador, Belize, and now Mexico. The name \u2018screwworm\u2019 reflects the larval stage\u2019s distinctive feeding behaviour \u2013 it \u2018screws\u2019 into the host\u2019s tissue (open wound or a moist body opening like the nose or ears) with sharp mouth hooks.<\/p>\n<p>The wounds increase in size and affect animal production. Without treatment the infestation of living tissue leads to severe pain, swelling, infection, and often death. Screwworms primarily affect livestock including cattle, horses, sheep, goats.<\/p>\n<h2 >\n\t\t\t2. Bluetongue<br \/>\n\t\t<\/h2>\n<p>Emma Higgins discussed bluetongue in Europe and the UK, currently at centre stage where this disease is concerned. On the dairy side of things she said it was \u201cincredibly impactful last year particularly having an effect of cows and their calves \u2013 aborting calves and stillborn calves were some of the biggest challenges and that impacted on calving patterns and the flow of milk.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/vetnewsandviews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/11-300x193.webp\" alt=\"11\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/vetnewsandviews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/9-300x193.webp\" alt=\"Ads Jadeed Group\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/vetnewsandviews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/8-300x193.webp\" alt=\"Ads FAG\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/vetnewsandviews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/12-300x193.webp\" alt=\"Ads Saadat Vaxxitek\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/vetnewsandviews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/14-300x193.webp\" alt=\"Agri Pro\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/vetnewsandviews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/18-300x193.webp\" alt=\"18\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/vetnewsandviews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/13-300x193.webp\" alt=\"Ads Hilton Pharma Protexin\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" viewBox=\"0 0 1000 1000\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M646 125C629 125 613 133 604 142L308 442C296 454 292 471 292 487 292 504 296 521 308 533L604 854C617 867 629 875 646 875 663 875 679 871 692 858 704 846 713 829 713 812 713 796 708 779 692 767L438 487 692 225C700 217 708 204 708 187 708 171 704 154 692 142 675 129 663 125 646 125Z\"><\/path><\/svg><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" viewBox=\"0 0 1000 1000\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M696 533C708 521 713 504 713 487 713 471 708 454 696 446L400 146C388 133 375 125 354 125 338 125 325 129 313 142 300 154 292 171 292 187 292 204 296 221 308 233L563 492 304 771C292 783 288 800 288 817 288 833 296 850 308 863 321 871 338 875 354 875 371 875 388 867 400 854L696 533Z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>She said that the virus also had a knock-on effect on milk production. The challenges of Bluetongue currently is the \u201clingering effects\u201d still playing out which she says is impacting pregnancy rates for this season and milk production in the EU. She highlighted that it\u2019s not necessarily the challenges of the spread of bluetongue in dairy but there are the issues with the ongoing effects from the outbreaks from last year.<\/p>\n<p>In the UK market, however, there have been more issues with smaller ruminants. In sheep, the problems have been more significant than in cattle. This is highlighted by the recent announcement that, from 1 July 2025, the Bluetongue restricted zone in England will be expanded to cover the entire country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom a dairy perspective we are really keen to see how this progresses between May and September and also the efficacy of the vaccines that are being developed, keeping in mind there will be some new strains as well which really impact the efficacy of those more traditional vaccines that have been applied to the herd,\u201d added Higgins.<\/p>\n<h2 >\n\t\t\t3.Avian influenza<br \/>\n\t\t<\/h2>\n<p>The H5N1 strain of avian influenza in the US grabbed headlines since last year with south-western states the most impacted by bird flu with milk production yields being affected at a national level. \u201cNow we have milk production growing again \u2013 April volumes lifted 1.5% year-on-year. But what is really interesting is that California milk production continues to be negatively impacted by those lingering impacts of bird flu with a production drop of about 1.4% year-on-year for the 7th month in a row.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/223gqxfh\" target=\"_blank\" tabindex=\"-1\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1820\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/vetnewsandviews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/create-an-attractive-image-of-this-heading-what-h.avif\" alt=\"What Happens to Dairy Cow Fertility When Temperatures Rise?\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" data-dominant-color=\"aea984\" style=\"--dominant-color: #aea984\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/223gqxfh\" target=\"_blank\">What Happens to Dairy Cow Fertility When Temperatures Rise?<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Click and Read this News<\/p>\n<p>She added that we would see much stronger milk production from the US if it weren\u2019t for the impact of bird flu impacts in California. Bird flu cases are still being reported in California, Idaho and Arizona.<\/p>\n<h2 >\n\t\t\t4.Foot and mouth disease (FMD)<br \/>\n\t\t<\/h2>\n<p>\u201cIt is a challenge for many regions,\u201d Higgins said about foot and mouth disease (FMD). She highlighted that the most recent concerns have been around the European dairy industry. \u201cRecent outbreaks of FMD in Germany, Slovakia, Hungary and Austria did have some impacts on milk production and exports at a broad level.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>No new outbreaks have been reported since the first week of May, and Germany has been declared free of foot and mouth disease after 8 weeks post outbreak.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFoot and mouth disease is something that we watch very closely, given our small exporting island [New Zealand] and being sensitive to biosecurity issues and FMD being a big one,\u201d Higgins added.<\/p>\n<p>Corkran concluded in reference to New Zealand: \u201cThese livestock health issues can have big effects in the markets that we are both buying from and selling to. The biosecurity area and the invisible threats that exist and how it can globally shake up our food systems.
