Abstract
- The article discusses exchange between the U.S. and Mexican cattle industries between 1870 and 1947. According to the article, for many of the decades during the period, cattle, hides, and henequen fiber were the sole agricultural products that maintained a significant presence in U.S. markets. The article argues that during the last two decades of the 19th century, cattle raising in the U.S. and Mexico became increasingly intermixed through commerce. It states that this occurred because U.S. and Mexican cattle raisers shared a regional base in the southwestern U.S. and northern Mexico. The article examines how the cattle trade expanded between the two countries, the impact of political decisions on cattle commerce, and the trade advantages and disadvantages of the U.S. and Mexico.
