Relief could be on the way for South Texas farmers facing a crippling water shortage. On Friday, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said the country would make “an immediate water delivery“ to Texas farmers.

Mexico plans to deliver water to farmers in drought-stricken Texas, a day after President Donald Trump threatened tariffs and sanctions for not providing water from the Rio Grande River under a 1944 treaty.

Late Thursday on Truth Social, Trump escalated the disagreement between the two countries by threatening tariffs or sanctions on Mexico if his demands were not met. Texas Republicans have also publicly accused Mexico of openly violating the treaty, which harms farmers reliant on water deliveries.
