Why Ranchers Are Freaking Out Over Flies

Imagine if a bug could ruin your steak dinner plans—literally. That’s what ranchers are dealing with as a flesh-eating fly threatens to cross from Mexico into the U.S. These flies can destroy entire herds, so the government is scrambling to keep them out. The drama? Bureaucratic red tape in Mexico almost grounded the fly-fighting planes, risking a beef shortage and higher prices at the grocery store. Crisis (mostly) averted, but ranchers say we need a backup plan—just in case. #FoodSecurity #RanchLife #BeefNews #ConsumerImpact #Business
