MEXICO CITY (Reuters) – The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) will immediately resume its avocado inspection program in Michoacan, Mexico, U.S. Ambassador to Mexico Ken Salazar said Friday in a statement.
The United States had paused the program on Feb. 11 after a security incident in which an employee received a “verbal threat,” the USDA said.
