The U.S. government has fully resumed its activities in Mexico's Michoacan state, the country's top avocado-producing region, following a security alert issued by the embassy. Earlier this month, the United States had suspended government activities in the state due to security concerns, which disrupted the necessary inspections for avocado exports to the U.S. A partial restart of operations took place last week, and full resumption was announced on Thursday.
