Mexico and US reach deal on Rio Grande water sharing

  • Mexico and the United States reached an agreement on Monday for Mexico to send more Rio Grande water to Texas farmers through October.
  • The deal follows concerns over Mexico’s past shortfalls in water delivery under the 1944 treaty, which requires Mexico to provide 1.75 million acre-feet over five years.
  • Mexico committed to immediate transfers from international reservoirs and will increase U.S. Shares from six tributaries through the current five-year cycle ending in October.
  • The increase in water deliveries from Mexico was hailed as a significant achievement for U.S. Farmers by Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins, while State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce expressed gratitude to Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum for her instrumental role in fostering cooperation.
  • The agreement aims to ensure Texas producers receive needed water, supporting agriculture amid ongoing drought and reflecting continued adherence to the 1944 treaty without renegotiation.
