Mexico has agreed to immediate water deliveries to Texas farmers in an effort to resolve a growing dispute over a decades-old water-sharing treaty, which has strained relations with the United States and triggered threats of tariffs.
The Mexican and U.S. governments on Monday confirmed that Mexico will release part of its water reserves and increase the share of water flowing to the United States from six Rio Grande tributaries through the remainder of the current five-year cycle, which ends in October.
