• Cattle and beef markets from all directions (beefmagazine.com) — Santa Teresa’s cattle border crossing facility, a major gateway for Mexican cattle, remains mostly closed, sharply limiting activity at this key local economic asset. A livestock economist recounts a 10‑day, 3,100‑mile trip from New Mexico to Montana, describing drought-strained pastures, shifting cattle inventories, and strong beef demand that is keeping prices high across the supply chain.
