Punta de Agua Airport

Economic reasons, specifically the conversion of the land for agricultural purposes. The airstrip was a private facility, and its closure appears to be a private decision to repurpose the land for farming. Satellite imagery clearly shows agricultural patterns (plowing, cultivation) encroaching upon and eventually covering the former runway. There is no evidence to suggest military conversion, a major accident, or other public factors led to its closure.

The site is defunct and no longer functions as an airport. The land has been reclaimed for agriculture. While the faint outline of the ~1,200-meter dirt runway is still visible in satellite imagery as a scar on the landscape, it is bisected by farm tracks and shows clear evidence of being plowed and cultivated. It is effectively part of the surrounding farmland.

The airport held no major national or regional significance. It was a private, unpaved airstrip primarily serving general aviation and agricultural needs. Its operations likely supported a large local ranch or agribusiness in Allende, a major agricultural municipality in Chihuahua. Activities would have included light transport for personnel or equipment, and potentially aerial application (crop dusting). The ICAO identifier 'MX-2419' is a non-standard, local designation typical for private aerodromes in Mexico, not an official code for a public-use airport.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening the airport. Given that the land has been fully converted to agricultural use, reopening would require a significant private investment to acquire the land and reconstruct the runway from scratch. As it was likely closed because it was no longer economically viable for its private owner, a future reopening is considered highly improbable.
